<p>FONTAGENT X BECOMES TOTAL FONT MANAGER, TAKES ON SUITCASE AND FONTRESERVE</p>
<p>Font Optimization and Organization Leader Adds Font Activation and Management</p>
<p>May 14, 2002 [Carlsbad, CA] Insider Software today announced the immediate<br />
availability of Insider FontAgent X for Mac OS X, a groundbreaking Cocoa<br />
release that adds font activation, set management, and support for any<br />
number of font libraries to the industry's leading font optimization<br />
product. The new FontAgent X is so functionally complete that it is the<br />
only font utility that Macintosh users need to organize, activate, preview,<br />
repair and manage their font collections.</p>
<p>"Other font management vendors have recommended FontAgent to their users<br />
for years for its font integrity and organization power, and the users have<br />
told us that they want just one comprehensive font product," said Rio<br />
Sabadicci, CEO of Insider Software. "Our new release starts with<br />
FontAgent's unique font organization and repair powers, and adds features<br />
that go beyond the font-management abilities of Suitcase and FontReserve."</p>
<p>COMPREHENSIVE LIBRARY CREATION, REPAIR AND MANAGEMENT Insider FontAgent X<br />
enables users to build any number of libraries containing fonts that have<br />
been tested for integrity, assigned meaningful names, and organized by font<br />
family. With the click of a button, users can find, clean, rejoin and<br />
organize all their fonts on multiple disks. FontAgent checks for corrupt<br />
fonts, partial font families, and font version issues, fixing font problems<br />
before they cause crashes, unexpected substitutions, printing errors and<br />
application problems.</p>
<p>NEW SUPPORT FOR FONT SETS, ACTIVATION AND PREVIEWING The new FontAgent<br />
allows users to define font sets that associate fonts from any number of<br />
libraries with drag-and-drop ease. It also enables them to activate and<br />
deactivate individual fonts and font sets with a single click. In addition,<br />
FontAgent X includes the most powerful font preview facility in the<br />
industry, allowing users to define any text string and display it in any<br />
typeface contained in any font library, in any size, without having to<br />
activate the font. These new features make selecting fonts and jumping<br />
between projects simple and quick.</p>
<p>CLEAR INTERFACE FOR ALL-IN-ONE FUNCTIONALITY The all new Aqua interface<br />
incorporates many OS X features such as sheets, extensive drag and drop,<br />
and toolbars.</p>
<p>"FontAgent X is a terrific piece of software, with a beautifully clear,<br />
understandable interface, and lucid, well organized help," commented<br />
Michael Meyer, an editor and writer for Columbia Health Services in New<br />
York. "In the brief time FontAgent X requires to collect fonts on an entire<br />
drive, it verifies the integrity of the fonts, detects duplicates, and<br />
completes other steps that other font managers have to perform as separate,<br />
time-consuming actions. FontAgent X runs like a demon on my old PowerBook<br />
and it's making my life a lot easier."</p>
<p>THE UNIQUE POWERS OF FONTAGENT X<br />
FontAgent X introduces a number of unique features never seen before in<br />
font management, including the ability to:</p>
<p> * Define multiple font libraries that can be opened simultaneously<br />
* Define font sets that traverse multiple font libraries<br />
* Activate and deactivate sets of fonts simultaneously from<br />
multiple libraries<br />
* Rename font files with meaningful file names for easy management<br />
* Verify the integrity of fonts on-the-fly as they are activated<br />
* Reorganize scattered fonts into useful libraries that maintain Mac<br />
OS font-file formats<br />
* Preview any text string in any size in any typeface</p>
<p>The new features in FontAgent X supersede the capabilities of FontReserve<br />
and Suitcase while combining seamlessly with FontAgent's award-winning font<br />
repair and organization features.</p>
<p>PRICING AND AVAILABILITY<br />
Insider FontAgent X for Macintosh is available for immediate download from<br />
Insider's website at <a href="http://www.insidersoftware.com" title="www.insidersoftware.com">www.insidersoftware.com</a> and costs $89.95 US for a<br />
