Extensis has announced Universal Type Server 2.0 Professional and Lite. Universal Type Server 2.0 has new font license compliance capabilities: using a simple web interface, administrators can tell if their fonts are compliant with their licenses. With this release, Extensis says that it builds on its commitment to industry standards and proven open source technologies to deliver the best flexibility and performance. A new optional External Database Module, supporting Microsoft SQL Server, will offer increased scalability for demanding environments. The new version of the Type Client provides Mac and Windows users with an improved experience, including the ability to view all glyphs of a font and print font previews. Users can also “tear-off” a font preview and float it on top of any document to easily compare fonts in any application. With this release, Extensis also provides faster font auto-activation for more applications, with Mac and Windows plug-ins for Adobe Illustrator and InDesign CS2, CS3 and CS4, as well as QuarkXPress 7 and 8.
Extensis has released released Suitcase Fusion 2 version 13.1, adding support for Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) to its Mac-based single-user font management software. The lack of support for OS X 10.4 -- along with older versions of Adobe's Creative Suite tools and QuarkXPress -- was the main criticism in our review of Suitcase Fusion 2. "We understand that times are tough for our customers right now," says Brian Berson, General Manager at Extensis. "By adding Tiger compatibility, users can benefit from the outstanding previews and performance of Suitcase Fusion 2 without upgrading their Mac OS." The update also adds a variety of desktop, plug-in manager and other enhancements. Suitcase Fusion 2 costs £61 plus VAT, or £35 plus VAT as an upgrade.
