Short & sweet:
Adobe Illustrator has this feature called Retype (beta). With it you can select an image in Illustrator and enter Retype (beta) to determine the fonts that were used (at least close matches) in the JPG! It will also do the same for text that has been outlined. It’s amazing!
Any chance that the Match Font tool in Ps (wish the tool name was consistent) will ever be updated to let us type in a word other than Sample? It’s really difficult to match the font if we can’t match the word being referenced.
Agreed! Unfortunately I have no idea & no sway.
