<p>Insider Software has announced the immediate availability of<br />
FontAgent Pro Server 3, which incorporates what the company says is<br />
the industry's first and only replicated font server technology. In<br />
addition, the new release adds advanced directory services<br />
integration as well as security and performance enhancements that<br />
significantly widen its technical lead over Extensis Universal Type<br />
Server (UTS).</p>
<p>FontAgent Pro Server 3 is the first font server to enable<br />
organizations to establish redundant, replicated font servers across<br />
their enterprise so users can enjoy top performance as administrators<br />
distribute server load. Administrators can make changes to a master<br />
font server, which replicates the changes automatically and<br />
transparently to all remote servers.</p>
<p>With the new release, FontAgent Pro Server's zero-config directory<br />
services implementation automatically sees users and groups in LDAP<br />
and Active/Open Directory servers, eliminating the need to keep a<br />
separate list of users and groups in the font server.</p>
<p>FontAgent Pro Server 3 enables administrators to assign privileges to<br />
users and groups who are best suited to perform specific tasks. For<br />
example, administrators can maintain ultimate server control, but<br />
assign design managers the right to upload fonts, create and edit<br />
sets, and edit font license information. In addition, admins can<br />
grant privileges to users that apply only to their workgroup and not<br />
the entire organization.</p>
<p>FontAgent Pro 3 allows Font Agent Pro users with proper privileges to<br />
create sets of server-based fonts and upload them with a click, and<br />
then edit the sets later as they require.</p>
<p>FontAgent Pro now encrypts all user and password information with AES<br />
128-bit encryption and sends it to the font server, which can<br />
authenticate users locally or through enterprise directory servers.</p>
<p>Built on an advanced, multi-threaded architecture that takes full<br />
advantage of multi-core servers and eliminates I/O bottlenecks,<br />
FontAgent Pro Server 3 can handle tens of thousands of fonts and<br />
users unobtrusively and with unequaled speed. And its new smart<br />
caching of recently downloaded fonts reduces CPU load and syncs<br />
clients at rates 8 to 10 times faster than Extensis UTS. Early tests<br />
also show font activation occurring twice as fast in FontAgent Pro<br />
than Extensis UTS, and 10 to 20 times faster than Extensis UTS remote<br />
activation.</p>
<p>FontAgent Pro Server requires Mac OS X version 10.4 or later, 30<br />
megabytes of disk space and 256 megabytes of memory. FontAgent Pro<br />
Server supports a range of Macintosh hardware, from dual G4 Macintosh<br />
computers up to and including Apple's Mac Pro multi-processors. It<br />
does not require dedicated server hardware and permits administrators<br />
to fine-tune performance to compensate for varying speeds on<br />
enterprise networks.</p>
<p>FontAgent Pro Server is priced at US$1,695per server, and the master<br />
replication server costs $2995 US. Each user connecting to the server<br />
requires a licensed version of the FontAgent Pro connected client,<br />
whose retail cost is $129.95 US per seat with volume pricing<br />
available. For more information, users can visit<br />
