NOTE
The term “suitcase” originated on the Macintosh, where fonts were at one time required to be placed in a
“suitcase” or they couldn’t be used by the system. In more recent versions of the Mac OS, fonts do not need to
be placed into suitcases, but fonts stored in suitcases can still be used and will be activated by Suitcase Fusion
3.

Installing Suitcase Fusion
Before installing Suitcase Fusion, you must disable any other font managers. Running more than one font
manager can cause inconsistent font activation and is not recommended. The first time you run Suitcase Fusion,
it will attempt to disable all other font managers, but it is best to quit and remove others before installation.
Suitcase Fusion 3 will only upgrade your existing Macintosh database if you are using Suitcase Fusion 12.1.6 or
higher. To be sure you have updated your current product to the most recent release, choose Suitcase
