This program facilitates comparison of various font and font rendering parameters. It displays sample line of text in sizes from 5 to 36px simultaneously and allows changing of font size range and increment, hinting, autohinting, anti-aliasing, subpixel smoothing, and aspect, immediately showing the changes on the screen. All Unicode characters are divided into blocks of 128 characters, and user can choose block of 128 characters to use as sample line of text.

I tried it and it works with a regular zip file, but if you password-protect the .zip file it does NOT work.
