The first time we reinstalled the app to get it working, this time, we installed Suitcase 3 (Per instructions on their website) and the problem has not been fixed.

A MAJOR PAIN. Love the app but can’t handle the instability with OS updates….gonna try Font Agent.

For a quick introduction to Suitcase Fusion, download our Quick Reference Card. It’ll give you all of the pertinent information and is a quick read.

I find the user interface confusing and cryptic. I don’t understand the whole font “vault” concept. I’m not interested in reading a book-length user manual to understand a font management program. Am I just a stupid person? Well, I’ve been working with all the Adobe CS products for almost 2 decades, using a collection of thousands of fonts. I just want easy font management, not a career in font management.

Is it in a different class of font management tool? If it just wasn’t on hand to test, what are other’s experiences with it? Thanks!

Great article! Do you have one that covers Fonts under Snow Leopard (64-bit)?

Thanks,
