Suitcase Fusion is the only industrial-strength font manager with precise Font Sense auto-activation, font repair functionality, and a central font repository, which provides unmatched sorting, searching, organizing and previewing capabilities, and eliminates duplicate font issues.
Suitcase Fusion 2 is an early adopter too with seamless auto-activation support for Adobe InDesign and Illustrator CS4 and QuarkXPress 8. Not there yet? No worries, Suitcase Fusuion 2 also supports CS3 and QuarkXPress 7.
The new interface gives you the perfect excuse to mix a little play with your work. It’s sleek, straightforward design makes it easy to locate, group, examine, preview and activate any font in your library.
Suitcase Fusion 2 comes with professional-grade auto-activation plug-ins for critical design and publishing apps, including InDesign, Illustrator, and QuarkXPress.
These plug-ins utilize Font Sense to precisely match and auto-activate the right font types when you open a document. To avoid other conflicts, these plug-ins will also auto-deactivate the fonts upon closing a document.
