I did a test print via pdf-x and through a brisque system for high end print production, all output was prisitne and just fine as far as I can tell (though I’m not going to ask the vendors to create screen/plate for this). So far it’s integrated into all my Adobe Applications just fine, no corrupt fonts in any windows I’m noticing (all the low end apps seem just fine). It grouped all my font family’s into a nice bracket down menu for me to see easily, a nice trade off to suitcase just dropping a whole set as individual files. It is, again, fonts in an iTunes package. The summary information about each font is a beautiful thing, not to mention it’s preview is quick and painless. The user interface is a bit intimidating at first, probably because I’m accustomed to Suitcase - but as it seems more itunes friendly, it’s just like making playlists. By habit, I dropped into the plugins folder anyhow. It also automatically gave me plugins for CS, CS2, and Quark (upon request) - also nice, as this feature always never worked in Suticase automatically for me. I killed the application accordingly, though it didn’t seem to harm anything, and my system seems to be cool. Suitcase definately didn’t seem to like it too well - I accidentally had it open (never have a need to close it) since startup, and, with all my adobe apps just shutting down, Suitcase started acting squirrely. I have 10,000+ fonts, it took about 2-3 minutes for a transfer (G5 dual 2ghz, 4 gig RAM). You can manually adjust this, but I wanted to see the automated method. I second Ryan’s response, it copied my fonts (per my request) to a new location, cleaned up the fonts in my system folder, and dumped them in a desktop folder rather nicely considering. Just noticed, it registered with Growl, which is cool to see it interact with growl nicely.
