FontAgent X 10.1.1 Released

FONTAGENT X UPDATE SIMPLIFIES FONT IMPORTING AND INSTALLATION
New Release Further Eases Transition to Mac OS X

June 18, 2002 [Carlsbad, CA] Insider Software announced today the 10.1.1
release of FontAgent X, its Cocoa application that provides total font
management and repair. The new version offers greater flexibility in the
importing and handling of fonts contained in the Fonts folder of systems
upgraded from Mac OS 9, and the importing of large font libraries. In
addition, the new release simplifies installation by adding the ability to
install FontAgent X without requiring Administrator privileges on Mac OS X
systems.

MOVING FONTS TO MAC OS X EASILY
"FontAgent X is the only available Cocoa-based font management and repair
utility on the market, and is a crucial application for users transitioning
to Mac OS X," commented Rio Sabadicci, president of Insider Software. "This
release allows users to bring all their fonts from prior versions of Mac OS
easily and reliably."

ONLY VIABLE FONT MANAGEMENT ALTERNATIVE FOR MAC OS X
FontAgent X combiness font management and repair in a single application,
unlike other solutions that must be cobbled together from disparate
utilities that were developed for earlier Macintosh operating systems. Only
FontAgent X offers a complete, integrated, modern solution for managing
fonts and diagnosing and repairing problems. The remarkable ease of use and
effectiveness of FontAgent X has been recognized by industry leaders. "I've
tried Suitcase 10 and Font Reserve 3, neither of which are even remotely
usable," commented Robert Goodyear, VP of Internet Strategy for advertising
giant Young & Rubicam in Irvine, California. "Insider's FontAgent X is the
only logical successor."

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 and font sets,
activate and deactivate fonts, preview fonts in various typefaces, and
eliminate 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
* Preview any text string in any size in any typeface and in any color

The new features in FontAgent X supersede the capabilities of FontReserve
and Suitcase while combining seamlessly with FontAgent's award-winning font
repair and organization features.

Insider FontAgent X for Macintosh is available for immediate download from
Insider's website at www.insidersoftware.com and costs $99.95 ($89.95 for
