Enter Extensis and the WebINK® font rental service. WebINK delivers professional, high-quality fonts to your website at very low cost. WebINK allows you to browse and preview fonts, test them on your website, then generate the necessary CSS to include them in your live site. In most cases, you will need to change just one file on your site to give it a new, professional look. Unlike other methods of using web fonts, WebINK does not generate static images of your text, does not require JavaScript or Flash, does not require any end-user setup, and does not require special handling for specific browsers. All that you need to do is choose your fonts and add the CSS to your site. Suitcase Fusion gives you direct access to WebINK, so you can search for fonts, preview your website, and generate the necessary CSS from the same font manager that you use for your desktop workflow. Using WebINK fonts on your website is a straightforward process. There is some setup involved, and after that you only need to select fonts, export a CSS file, and integrate that CSS into your website. Here are the basic steps you need to follow in order to access the WebINK service, set up the service to work with a website, select custom fonts, and add the style sheet to your site. 1. Install Suitcase Fusion. Besides managing your desktop fonts, Suitcase Fusion provides the tools you need to find and try fonts for your website, and create the style sheet enhancements you’ll need to use those fonts. 2. Create a WebINK account. Suitcase Fusion gives you the option to do this the first time you run it. Tell us your name, email address and other contact information. 3. Log in to your account using Suitcase Fusion. 4. Create a Type Drawer and add sites to it. A Type Drawer holds the fonts you want to use and the sites you want to use those fonts on. 5. Find fonts for your site and add them to the Type Drawer. The WebINK Library holds hundreds of high-quality fonts from major type foundries. Suitcase Fusion allows you to preview your website with WebINK fonts in any elements on your page. 6. Export the CSS for your Type Drawer. 7. Add the CSS to your website’s stylesheet then republish your stylesheet. Your website will be updated immediately! - 10 -
Suitcase Fusion and Google Web Fonts Google Web Fonts are free open source fonts for use with the Google Web Fonts API (http://code.google.com/apis/webfonts/docs/getting_started.html). Suitcase Fusion 3 brings these fonts to your desktop for use in all your applications. Enabling or disabling Google Web Fonts In order to use these in Suitcase Fusion 3 and in the Extensis Font Panel within Adobe Photoshop, the feature needs to be enabled. When Google Web Fonts are enabled, the Google Web Fonts library icon is displayed in the Suitcase Fusion 3 Library pane. NOTE: Google Web Fonts are disabled by default when you install or update Suitcase Fusion 3. • To enable the feature, choose File > Enable Google Web Fonts. • To disable, choose File > Disable Google Web Fonts. • To use these fonts in Photoshop, choose Google Web Fonts from the drop-down menu at the top of the Extensis Font Panel in Photoshop. Updating Google Web Fonts Suitcase Fusion 3 will update the list of Google Web Fonts at several different times: • When you enable the featurefrom the File menu. • Every 24 hours (when the Extensis Type Core is running). • Every time you start Suitcase Fusion 3. • Every time you choose File > Synchronize Web Fonts from within Suitcase Fusion 3. - 11 -
