Suitcase 9.2 User Guide 11
This section provides a brief overview of the most common
Suitcase functions so that you can get up and running quickly;
for detailed information on these and many other features avail-
able with Suitcase, refer to other sections in this User Guide, and
to the Suitcase QuickStart Guide that came with your copy of
Suitcase.
Overview
To use Suitcase to manage your fonts all you need to do is add
them to Suitcase and then “activate” them (make them available
to the system, just as if they had been stored in the Windows
Fonts folder).
Important: If you wish to use Suitcase to manage fonts currently
stored in the Windows Fonts folder (C:\Windows\Fonts), they must be
removed from that folder and then added to Suitcase (see page 30).
To put ATM managed fonts under Suitcase control, see page 35.
You can use Suitcaseʼs powerful “sets” feature to group your
fonts so that you can activate and deactivate multiple fonts at
the same time, or you can simply add fonts to Suitcase “loose”
(without inclusion in a Suitcase Set).
Managing fonts with Suitcase is easy! You add fonts to Suitcase
(allow Suitcase to control them) using the Add command or
button, or simply drag and drop fonts, or folders of fonts into
the Sets or Fonts pane, depending on what you want to do. Then
activate the fonts by choosing either of two states:
• “Permanent”—so that they will be activated immediately and
reactivated automatically each time the system is started, or
• “Until Restart”—so that they will be active until the system
is shut down, but will not be reactivated when the system is
started up again. Suitcase remembers these fonts and allows
you to activate them again at any time.
No matter which activation state you choose, when you are
finished using a font or set of fonts you can deactivate them
permanently (or until you manually reactivate them) by opening
the Suitcase application and using the “Deactivate” command.
Note: All fonts opened in Suitcase remain active until you
deactivate (close) them, or until the system is shut down or
restarted.
