I followed the steps, but no fonts were found. What can I do?

Try a higher-resolution crop (avoid blur and compression). Use more characters (4–6 is ideal). Prefer unique characters (e.g., g, a, R, Q, 2, 7). Make sure letters do not touch each other. Our good versus bad examples show what each of these looks like in practice.

Small images miss important character details, so matching becomes unreliable. Use a higher-resolution crop and type only characters that are unique for the font. The examples page shows the difference between a crop that works and one that does not.
