Welcome to Suitcase Fusion Extensis Suitcase Fusion is a powerful font management utility that gives you total and precise control over all of the fonts on your system, all while making your work with fonts faster and easier than ever before. Suitcase Fusion allows you to locate and activate fonts only when you need them, saving valuable system resources and time. Suitcase Fusion helps you automatically activate fonts for documents through autoactivation plug-ins for popular design applications, as well as on a system wide level. With Suitcase Fusion, you’ll never need to be concerned that a corrupt font might interrupt your workflow. Potential problems are diagnosed and repairs are automatically applied when a font is added. Suitcase Fusion is the industrial-strength font management application for all creative professionals. Powered by the Suitcase Fusion Core, you will always have the font you need when you need it. Overview of Suitcase Fusion and Desktop Font Management If you haven’t used a font manager before, you probably have most of your fonts in your system’s Fonts folder. Fonts in the system fonts folders are opened automatically each time the system is started or restarted. If you have a small number of fonts, it may not matter whether all the fonts are opened all the time. However, if you have a large number of fonts, having every font open all the time means that you probably have fonts open that you don’t need, and possibly will never use. This consumes system memory, slows down your computer, and can make it difficult to wade through application Font menus to find and select fonts. It also takes time for an application to read all that font data to create the Font list, which can slow your work down considerably. Suitcase Fusion fits directly in your workflow as a creative professional. Whether you’re searching for the right font for a new project, matching a font currently in use, or gathering fonts for output, Suitcase Fusion provides easy font management at every step of the way. Suitcase Fusion ensures that the exact font that you need is available when you need it. Through powerful autoactivation plug-ins, you can set your font activation preferences for each application. To fit into your professional workflow, with Suitcase Fusion you can: Organize files the way you want • Keep your fonts outside the system’s font folders saving precious system resources, yet easily open as many fonts as you want, any time you want. • Store your fonts safe and secure in Suitcase Fusion’s managed repository, the Font Vault. • Activate fonts on demand by dragging and dropping, and deactivate them just as easily. • Add fonts for specific jobs temporarily to your system to keep your font collection clean. Find and preview fonts when you need them • Quickly find just the right font with search features such as QuickFind and Smart Sets. • Organize and find fonts by many different attributes, including keyword, style, classification and foundry. • Preview multiple fonts at the same time, making the selection of just the right font easier than ever. • Closely examine necessary fonts with the Glyph View feature. • Keep sets of specialty fonts available at your fingertips, without the inconvenience of resorting to a manufacturer’s CD or DVD to search for that special new font for a project. Add and activate fonts as you need them • Have Suitcase Fusion intelligently activate and deactivate fonts automatically when you open and close Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator, and QuarkXPress documents. • Access fonts conveniently, turning them on only when you need them, then turning them off as soon as you’re finished with them, freeing system memory for other uses. - 7 -
