1. Font Conflicts If you attempt to activate a font that conflicts with an already open font typically Suitcase Fusion deactivates the currently active font and activates the requested font instead You can control how Suitcase reacts to font conflicts by changing the settings in the Suitcase Fusion Preferences To tell Suitcase Fusion to warn you about font conflicts 1 Choose Edit gt Preferences 2 Enable the Notify if a Conflict Occurs option 3 Click OK With conflict notifications enabled when Suitcase Fusion attempts to activate a font that conflicts with a currently active font you will be presented with the option to either e Activate the requested font this option activates the font that you requested or was requested by an auto activation plug in e Keep the current font active this option prevents the new font from deactivating the currently active font Deleting Fonts You can delete fonts for any reason whether they re outdated corrupt orphans unused unlicensed etc Before deleting fonts be sure that you no longer need the font in the library and that you have a backup copy if you ever expect to use the font again 24 When deleting fonts it s important to understand how fonts are removed Fonts are typically only removed from the location that you have selected in the Libraries window This means that if you have a Set selected and delete a font it is only removed from that set not from the libr

For example an agency doing work for multiple movie studios could make a library for each studio Then within each library a new set would be created for each movie and nested within each movie set could be sets for specific projects like movie poster DVD cover etc 15 Service Bureau or Printer Sample Setup Service bureaus and printers have font management issues unlike most other users handling the scores of fonts delivered by clients each day ensuring that the appropriate fonts are used to output each job controlling the number of active fonts and deleting fonts that are no longer necessary Fortunately many features in Suitcase Fusion are designed to address service bureau specific issues Managing House Fonts Service bureaus generally own an extensive library of fonts that may be used to print their materials or to print documents for clients that do not provide fonts To keep these fonts separate from clients fonts the service bureau s fonts can be stored in a Font Vault used specifically for house fonts Adding Clients Fonts Whether you require clients to deliver fonts with jobs or they re educated enough to do it on their own you re likely to receive anywhere from a few individual font files to a hundred or more fonts with each job The way you add those fonts to the database will depend somewhat on the nature of the client or the nature of the job Generally it makes sense to keep the client fonts toget

4. PostScript etc of fonts used in documents But with the various types of fonts vendors and versions that exist font names are not unique identifiers Most users have multiple versions of many fonts on their computers particularly common fonts such as Helvetica and Times and the applications they use cannot identify which versions are used in their documents Font Sense solves this by saving complete font metadata into documents The font metadata generated by Font Sense starts with the name type foundry and version number of the fonts Then for truly unique font identification the metadata includes additional items such as checksum values The final result is the Font Sense identification number which you can view in Suitcase Fusion View gt Columns gt Font Sense Each time you save a document in a supported application the plug in records updated Font Sense metadata with the document The documents no longer rely solely on names to identify the fonts used in them When you open documents containing Font Sense specifications the plug ins use the Font Sense data to determine and activate precisely the right fonts Since the font metadata is saved within the document detailed font information travels with it No matter where the document is opened Font Sense knows precisely which fonts to activate Preparing Documents and Libraries The ultimate goal of using Font Sense is that you and the people in your workfl

Windows version 11 0 or higher If you are running an older version remove it from your system before you install Suitcase Fusion 3 If you are upgrading from a previous version of Suitcase or Suitcase Fusion see Upgrading to Suitcase Fusion 3 on page 13 for more information To install Suitcase Fusion double click the installer icon and allow the installer to guide your installation Suitcase Fusion and Web Fonts You may have noticed that many websites share the same tired look for their text content This is because web developers restrict themselves to using a limited set of common web fonts in order to ensure their pages display properly in most situations Recent advances in browsers and web standards allow web developers to use fonts that are not necessarily installed on the end user s computer This is done by including a style sheet that references a font that resides on a web server The font doesn t even need to be on the same server that hosts the website This opens up a whole new world of typographic possibilities for web developers and even the weekend webmaster Fonts can be hosted on a web server and used in as many different scenarios as you can imagine Up until now hosting fonts on a web server has been problematic if not impossible for many Will your web host allow you to upload fonts Does your font license allow you to share the font in this way Do you have the correct formats for all available

39. Corrupt fonts can be the source of document problems as well as cause operating system issues Suitcase Fusion defines a corrupt font as any font for which the font resources cannot be opened appear to contain inconsistent information or have incorrect values in important fields of the font file resource Most of the time if a font is corrupt it cannot be repaired However there are certain types of minor problems that can be corrected and there are certain types of problems that can be safely ignored The scanning process identifies corrupt or problem fonts and depending on the type of problem Suitcase Fusion either fixes the problem and adds the font to the library or gives you the option to add the fonts in place If you choose to add any potentially corrupt fonts in place they are put into a new date stamped set named Problem Fonts so that you can review them and take appropriate action Adding potentially corrupt fonts in place does have risks Corrupt fonts may still not activate properly and may cause potential printing problems The ability to add corrupt fonts in place is only provided as a convenience if you are absolutely unable to obtain a fresh copy of the font from your backups or from the font foundry It is highly recommended that you remove potentially corrupt fonts from your library as soon as it is no longer needed Duplicate Fonts In Suitcase Fusion a duplicate font is a font with the same Font Sense I
