Photoshop users: The Extensis Font Panel in Adobe Photoshop requires more work on our part to run natively on an M1 system. Our auto-activation plug-ins are also ready for Apple M1 systems. I started setting type in 1978 on a Varityper, learned Genigraphics in 1984 (which was bought by Microsoft and merged into Powerpoint five years later), learned and used Pagemaker v2 and Quark v2 when the typeshops I was working in bought them, and I don't need to be schooled by forum trolls about how to use this graphic arts software. Suitcase Fusion is a Universal application: it can run on both M1 and Intel Macintosh systems. Currently it appears that they only support the Adobe applications. We use Suitcase Fusion to manage all fonts, and don't need TypeKit in any way, shape or form, it interferes with Fusion and slows every CC app down massively. This program can be used to turn them on and off as you need. It can work with your system fonts, purchased fonts, fonts synced from Adobe Typekit, Google Fonts, and others. I cant find out from their website whether or not Auto Activation ever worked for the Affinity applications. Since moving to CC versions of the Adobe Suite, we're finding them VERY slow to load, and TypeKit is (to put it politely) annoying. From the developer: Suitcase Fusion allows you to manage all of your fonts from a single interface. Hit "Package", it will tell me everything I need to know. 13.9k Posted DecemI see that Suitcase has moved to a subscription based model. No, I know what's going to happen when open that file, and I know what to do. He seems to think I should be like Karnak the Magician, and just tap the envelope containing the 5-year-old InDesign file my client sent me to revise (I didn't create it) against my forehead to discern what fonts and images were used in the file so I can load and link them before I open the file - if I want the stupid Adobe pop-up to go away. When I'm in fusion and try to deactivate to reactivate, nothing responds. Start at the top and arrow down through each font. It wont communicate with adobe, Fonts are activated in fusion but don't appear within the adobe programs. Some of the more robust features of Suitcase Fusion 3 are its font matching system, which allows you to find similar fonts in your system for greater creative. Remove or Disable Open Font Book Make sure All Fonts is selected in the left column. I don't know what I do to make it work or not work. I started my own thread on this and immediately attracted the same Adobe Forum troll I was "schooled" by a couple years ago. Suitcase fusion gives me trouble everyday. Glad to have a fellow traveler on this journey.
