Ergonis Software has released PopChar X 7.2, an update of the tool for finding and inserting special characters and exploring fonts.

Version 7.2 supports Unicode 8.0 and prepares for OS X El Capitan, which is due this fall. It adds searchable descriptions and Mandarin pronunciations of Chinese characters and includes many enhancements that improve overall speed, stability, and compatibility with OS X Yosemite and third-party applications.

PopChar X 7.2 requires Mac OS X 10.6 or newer. It can be purchased on the Ergonis Software website (www.ergonis.com). The upgrade to PopChar X 7.2 is free for anyone who owns a license for PopChar X 7 or purchased a license for PopChar X 6 on or after March 1, 2014.

Upgrade paths are available for customers who purchased their license before that date. For information about purchases, including enterprise licenses, volume discounts, and upgrade pricing offers, see the company’s web site.
