Abstract: An identifier based glyph search is described. In one or more embodiments, a search input is analyzed in a digital medium environment to generate search tokens and locate a font. The search tokens are compared to identifiers within the font, and corresponding identifiers are used to locate and retrieve particular glyphs from within the font. The retrieved glyphs are ordered and configured for output or display. The resulting glyph results include a variety of glyphs that are related to the search input, and may provide alternative related glyphs even where a user knows an exact identifier associated with a glyph. This technique may be iterated to accommodate changing search inputs and allows users to easily find desired glyphs with minimal effort and without the need for specialized knowledge regarding the identifiers of particular glyphs.
