I'm completely new on a Mac. I would like a pointer as to how to visualize a preview of a given headline in as many fonts as possible from those installed on the system. What I need to accomplish is twofold:
1) Discover which fonts are installed on the system.
2) Look how my headlines looks in ALL of the fonts, spending as little time as possible (a screenful of previews rendered using the various fonts would be golden, perhaps with right-arrow/left-arrow allowing me to browse until I find something I like..).

I cannot import my usual Fonts onto this system so I need to use what they have.

FontAgent Pro from insidersoftware.com is an excellent font management application which will do all you ask. There are others - Suitcase, FontExplorer, etc. But I simply prefer FontAgent Pro.

You can use the Apple-installed FontBook as well, although it's a tad limited.

And on the Mac, simply highlighting a font file in the Finder and hitting the Space bar will show a preview of the font.
