Floating Previews<br />
Floating previews are helpful when you want to preview a number of fonts in the context of a project without<br />
activating the fonts. Floating previews are torn off from preview window, but still respond to any changes in<br />
preview type and type size. To be most useful, you will likely want to use this feature in conjunction with<br />
QuickType previews.<br />
Until they are closed, floating previews always display on top of all other applications in operating system.<br />
Tearing off a floating preview<br />
To tear off a floating preview:<br />
1. Choose one or more fonts in the Fonts pane.<br />
2. For each font preview that you want to create a floating preview, click and drag the Floating Preview<br />
button off of the <strong>Suitcase</strong> <strong>Fusion</strong> window. As you change preview type, text and size, the floating<br />
preview updates to reflect your changes.<br />
Activating and deactivating<br />
Just like all other font previews, you can activate or deactivate a font directly from the floating preview.<br />
To activate or deactivate the font, click the activation status icon in the floating preview.<br />
Closing multiple floating previews<br />
If you have multiple floating preview windows on your desktop, it can be tedious to click the close icon on all of<br />
the previews. To make it faster to close multiple floating preview windows, they can be merged down into a<br />
single preview and then closed.<br />
To close multiple floating previews:<br />
1. Choose Window > Floating Previews > Merge or press Command-Shift-M.<br />
2. Click the close icon on the floating preview.<br />
Font Snapshot<br />
You can “tear off” a preview and save it as a picture file, <strong>for</strong> use as a reference, <strong>for</strong> customer approval, or <strong>for</strong> use<br />
in a graphics application.<br />
Previews are saved as 72ppi Portable Network Graphic (PNG) files with a transparent background.<br />
To save a preview as a graphic:<br />
1. Choose any type of preview except Web Preview.<br />
2. Enter the text you want to use <strong>for</strong> the preview.<br />
3. Select the font to preview.<br />
4. Set the desired font size.<br />
5. Drag the icon in the preview’s title bar to the desktop or a folder.<br />
The resulting file will be named <strong>for</strong> the font you are previewing.<br />
NOTE: Font Snapshot is only available <strong>for</strong> locally-installed fonts, not <strong>for</strong> WebINK fonts.<br />
