kanihoncho Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I use Suitcase Fusion 6 (7 is out now) which will automatically activates fonts when an Adobe product opens a file that uses an unactivated font. Are you planning any compatibility? I have noticed that when I open a font with Fusion that AD updates the font menu without restarting it.

Hokusai Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 kanihoncho, I wish I could offer you a solution but unfortunately I don't know the answer. It does make me wonder if this is something that Affinity can add? It sounds like something that you would have to request to the makers of Suitcase Fusion. The makers of Suitcase also offer support for Quark Xpress, so they are not limited to just Adobe products (which is encouraging). Maybe they would consider offering support for Affinity apps as well? Hokusai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CartoonMike Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I posted that question and the answer from Extensis here: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/20334-compatibility-with-suitcase-fusion/ What I was told from the Extensis rep is that if Extensis gets enough requests from users of AD, they'll consider adding an auto activation system for AD. It doesn't seem that the Affinity Devs won't have to do much if anything at all.

kanihoncho Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Great idea! I emailed Extensis and made a request to adapt Suitcase Fusion to Affinity. I suggest other folks inquire as well. It's a great font manager CartoonMike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
