I truly loved being liberated from worrying about Type 1, Type 3, Multiple Masters, TrueType, and OpenType concerns. My recollection is that it did not “leap” very well from Classic Mac to OS X, and Font Book was a very welcome replacement when it arrived. Suitcase was part of my workflow on that machine under OS 7, and the Quadra that finally replaced it. Some of those fonts have followed me all the way from my Macintosh SE with its 20MB internal hard drive to my current iMac. I still have 800K disks with purchased Adobe fonts from the late 1980s, bundled with copies of Adobe Type Manager (ATM). Yes, and that’s why I’m surprised to hear that Suitcase is still around in any form.

Font Book is sitting on your Mac’s hard drive and is waiting to make font management easier for you: Steve Jobs developed a system level solution that solved the need to manage both PostScript and TrueType fonts. “Through our partnership with Typefi, we’re focused on applying the benefits of font management to automated publishing workflows so fonts can’t wreak havoc.”įurther details will be released soon!
