Extensis Ships Font Management Plug-ins for Adobe CS3

May 23, 2007: Extensis has released a series of free plug-ins for Suitcase Fusion and a free update for Suitcase for Windows to provide advanced font activation and deactivation for Adobe Creative Suite 3 documents.
These are the first font management plug-ins that have been designed for and tested on Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium and Standard editions and Web Premium and Standard editions software. The Suitcase Fusion plug-in ensures that any time users open an Adobe Illustrator CS3 project; the exact fonts are automatically and accurately activated or deactivated. The Suitcase for Windows product update works with both Adobe Illustrator and Adobe InDesign CS3 applications.
Suitcase Fusion and Suitcase for Windows auto-activation plug-ins utilise Extensis’ patented Font Sense auto-activation, allowing users to work fluently with fonts in CS applications and eliminate potential font problems before workflow disruption can occur. Font Sense technology provides a robust and industry-proven mechanism to identify and match exact versions of fonts. Extensis uses this cross-platform technology in its own font management applications to ensure that an application can activate the exact version of a font. Font Sense is available in Suitcase Fusion, Suitcase for Windows and Font Reserve Server and allows for true font identification in Illustrator, InDesign and QuarkXPress documents.
Currently available only in English, the free plug-in and update are available now for download from the Extensis website and support the Suitcase Fusion and Suitcase for Windows products. The new plug-in and update requires Adobe Illustrator CS3 and InDesign CS3 software. For the Suitcase Fusion Plug-in go to: http://www.extensis.com/en/support/product_support.jsp?id=100026
