FONTAGENT X 10.1 ENHANCES FONT-ACTIVATION SUPPORT FOR CLASSIC APPS
New Release Also Strengthens Font Library Functionality

June 11, 2002 [Carlsbad, CA] Insider Software today announced FontAgent X
10.1, a new release that adds font-activation support for Classic
applications and strengthens the leading font management utility’s unique
multi-library functionality.

NO REASON TO WAIT TO UPGRADE TO MAC OS X In addition to its extensive font
organization, management and integrity-assurance power, FontAgent X 10.1
now supports font activation within the Classic environment of Mac OS X.

“The Mac world is steadily moving to Mac OS X and Cocoa applications, but
there are still a lot of Classic Macintosh titles out there,” said Rio
Sabadicci, CEO of Insider Software. “This release of FontAgent X lets
customers upgrade to Mac OS X without giving up font management or their
existing Classic apps. From a font management perspective, there is now no
reason to wait to upgrade to Mac OS X.”

STRONGER MULTI-LIBRARY FUNCTIONALITY
The new release also adds power to FontAgent X’s unique library-management
capabilities by enabling users to:
* Explicitly specify the location of libraries to avoid file-access
permission problems
* Set library permissions to read/write or read only to protect the
integrity of them
* Automatically maintain a font set that includes all fonts from all
libraries to avoid having to open up all libraries when performing global
searches or maintenance

“The more that our customers try FontAgent’s multi-library features, the
more they see their value,” said Sabadicci. “They want to segregate their
fonts by owner, foundry, or project, yet still be able to see and manage
all their fonts at once. This new version helps them do just that.”

ABOUT INSIDER FONTAGENT X
Insider FontAgent X is a comprehensive font manager for Macintosh computers
running Mac OS X. It enables users to build font libraries, active and
deactivate fonts, preview fonts in various typefaces, and check for corrupt
fonts, unnecessary point sizes, partial font families, font version issues,
and Type 1/TrueType collisions. With a few clicks, users can organize their
entire font collection, test its integrity and save system resources and
precious time by opening only the fonts required for their current projects.

FontAgent X introduces a number of unique features never seen before in
font management, including the ability to:
* Define multiple font libraries that can be opened simultaneously
* Define font sets that traverse multiple font libraries
* Activate and deactivate sets of fonts simultaneously from multiple libraries
* Rename font files with meaningful file names for easy management
* Verify fonts on-the-fly as they are activated
* Reorganize scattered fonts into useful libraries that maintain original
font-file formats
