Faceted filters.

The left sidebar on the search results page provides access to a host of filters based on font Styles, Languages, Foundries and more to help you refine your font search results.

These filters auto-update to reflect changes to sub-styles and categories based on your selection so you can narrow down and laser-focus on the exact fonts you need.
