skrifttypeværktøj


Explanation:
I would translate the sentences as this:

Hvis du vil teste, om en skrifttype er ødelagt, kan du enten deaktivere skrifttyperne vha. systemet, eller vha. et eventuelt installeret "skrifttypeværktøj"

Deaktivér "skrifttypeværktøjet" for at forhindre indlæsning af skrifter, der styres af dette.
