Auto-extracted fonts & colors

The thing that makes a Morgue capture more than a screenshot: it arrives with the page's fonts and colors already pulled out and saved alongside the image.

Colors​

When you capture, Morgue extracts a color palette from the page and saves it as a reusable palette attached to the asset.

  • You can copy any color's hex with a click or right-click — see Copying colors.
  • Palettes are searchable: later you can find every asset that uses a particular color — see Search & color search.
  • You can refine a captured palette or build new ones by hand in the Palette builder.

Fonts​

Morgue detects the typefaces used on the page and records them with the capture.

  • Detected fonts show up so you can see what a design used at a glance.
  • Browse and preview fonts across your library in the Font browser.
Detection depends on the page

Font and color extraction reads what the page actually exposes. A site that loads custom web fonts and standard CSS colors extracts cleanly; pages that bake type into images or use unusual rendering may surface less. The image is always captured regardless.

Why it matters​

Because fonts and colors are captured as data, not just pixels, a screenshot becomes a real reference: you can pull its palette into a new project, match its type, or search your whole library by color months later.
