Speaking of those panels they are now HTML5-based and noticeably faster and more responsive then the previous Flex-based panels. With Extensis panels that are added to Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, activation can even be accomplished without ever leaving those friendly confines. QuarkXpress versions 9 and 10 are also supported. It’s a snap to activate and deactivate fonts from within the application and auto-activation plugins are installed automatically for InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator and InCopy CS5 through CC2014 (note that CS4 and earlier are no longer supported). Unfortunately, I don’t have Retina hardware available to test this on. If you’re running it on a Mac Retina display you should notice sharper previews. The interface has been tweaked enough to notice-especially the flat UI– but it will still feel familiar to upgraders. If you’ve recently upgraded your OS, or are thinking of doing so, this alone makes the upgrade to Suitcase Fusion 6 worthwhile to avoid incompatibilities. While there are no earthshaking new features, this release is fully compatible with the newest operating systems, Yosemite and Windows 8.1. As a mature application, this is an evolutionary upgrade-and that’s not a bad thing. I’m now on my fourth version of Extensis Suitcase Fusion, having first used it at version 3 and I have been pleased with the improvements with each release. With that many fonts, a font manager isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity. Even scrolling through a list that long would drive me nuts. If you’re still reading then like me, you know that installing more than 4,000 fonts is going to cause all kinds of problems. I have thousands of fonts from Adobe’s Font Folio and CorelDRAW Graphics Suite, plus countless others that I’ve acquired through the years.
