The filtering system is kind of smart, but not smart enough to make your life productive.
Fontagent vs suitcase 2018 pro#
You can count in one-click activation and program-based activation into its notable features.ĭespite all these, RightFont does not give the Pro feel that we found in Typeface. Syncing might be another area where RightFont can excel, since it lets you sync font data via platforms like Google Drive, Box, Amazon Drive, Dropbox and more. In addition to that, RightFont supports multiple lists as well. For instance, just like Typeface 2, you can categorize fonts based on the type and writing style. That having said, RightFont 4 focuses on some productive features and options.

Best font manager for Mac OS | Free font management software I tried it and to see all the glyphs they want a fee to see them. Well, maybe I should also try the FAP Pro 4 demo/trial version just to see how it runs.Your email address will not be published. Now i've got a Mac mini with Leopard and really need a godd font manager, that's why did opened this whole thread. FAP looks OKay, used it on Tiger on my old PowerMac G5. I have serious to consider, what should i buy. Maybe i am not right and FEX Pro will be THE industry standard Font Manager (the next version) in the following years. that's why I think, these two product will see future version. Insidersoftware and Extensis do live from their products. The same can happen with their Pro product. You see, they pulled the freeware FEX version from one day to another, that it's not supported anymore. However, what does really bother me at FEX Pro, is, that - as you already pointed out - because FEX so relativelly new product (so we can say not a mature), can it somehow happen, that Linotype thinks in a situation, that there would be not enough registered customers, that they simply stop the further development of this project.? Since their main living/activity is to sell fonts, not app making.

Anyway, this price is somehow the same as the upgrade prices for Suitcase Fusion 2 and FAP 4 Pro. The interface is simple, and there is also an option, that the fonts can be leaved on the original place, where they are stored (similar to Suitcase, don't know, how it is in the newest version).Īlso, the price of FEX Pro is cutted to half until the end of february (yet, we have to pay the price, that mean in US you pay 39,99 $ + German VAT, we in EU pay 39,99 + German VAT).

Right now im in phase of trying out Linotype FEX 2 Pro trial version. So there would be no problem at all to buy any of these updates for me.

Well, the situation is that, that i already own a Fusion 11 license (for both Mac an Win) and also a FAP 3 license. The newer CS4 plug-ins do not work with the free FEX 1.2.3. FEX is pretty seamless and worth a try though.īTW, tested the FEX upgrade work-around on my home MBP and it doesn't work, so don't waste your time if you know about it. Personally, I went with FAP since it's a more mature, proven program and I need to make sure our stations are productive and not bogged down with issues. So, I would recommend avoiding Fusion, which I know there are content users, but with over 16 years in advertising and being a long-time Suitcase user, it just never was a good program compared to others. We bought FAP4 multi-seat licenses at 40% cross-grade discount (same as FAP3 to FAP4 price). I asked if they had upgrade or competitive/cross-grade pricing and they do. Told them I was a previous user forced to go to Fusion. I feel this is the king of font managers and requires little to no babysitting.Ĭons: None except for price, more expensive than FEX, but. Pros: Loved this before, demo was awesome.
Still a young program and involves some interactions (less than Suitcase). $40 for limited time (50% off)Ĭons: Free not compatible with CS4, must use paid version. Pros: Good as a free program, better as paid (demo'd). Also requires 10.5 which we are on 10.4.11 and that upgrade isn't an option at the moment. Now to this past 2 weeks, as i said we upgraded to CS4 so I started researching before doing it company-wide. On my personal MBP, I use(d) FontExplorerX (FEX) and was surprised at how good it was for being free. Again, while Extensis did improve it, I really hated using Fusion (since we paid for multiple seats). When we upgraded to CS3, we had to go with Suitcase Fusion since FAP was not compatible yet. Moved to FontAgent Pro (FAP) and was extremely happy, few problems over many years. Used Suitcase since Adobe kill theirs and hated every minute of it. I've personally used all of these over many years.
We just upgraded to CS4 so this is a fresh subject for me.
