About FontExplorer X Server
Linotype's FontExplorer X Server font management solution works with Linotype's FontExplorer X Pro client edition to enable collaboration between users while allowing network administrators to streamline workflow efficiency. Administrators can distribute fonts and font sets over the network and allow identified users to customize font sets and preferences for their local use. Administrators can also organize fonts on the server according to specified groups -- such as work groups, departments, job type and projects -- and assign privileges to individual users and groups accordingly. As new font families are added, fonts can be installed quickly across the network. Backup functions enable administrators to recover fonts as well as font settings.
FontExplorer X Server can also monitor font usage across the organization, allowing administrators to compare usage against corresponding font licenses, and remove fonts deemed redundant or unnecessary. Companies seeking advanced levels of font license control can turn to Monotype Imaging's Fontwise(R) solution -- a font license management service that can work in parallel with FontExplorer X.
FontExplorer X Pro
Designed for easy organization and management of fonts, FontExplorer X Pro includes a host of features designed to enable precise control of fonts. Users are able to activate and deactivate fonts based on established criteria, such as activating user-defined fonts when opening Adobe(R) InDesign(R), Illustrator(R) or QuarkXPress(TM) applications, and then deactivating the fonts when applications are closed. Users may set up access to typefaces from a certain typeface foundry or all fonts tagged with a user-defined keyword. At any time, users may examine complete character sets of fonts, as well as the shapes and forms of individual characters. Users may also compare kerning pairs or create sample paragraphs to see how a font will look before committing to its use. When seeking new fonts, users may access an integrated, online store to browse and render typefaces in user-defined text strings, before licensing and downloading the fonts. Access to font files may also be regulated by passwords. Backup capabilities enable users to save font configurations, including pre-determined font sets and preferences.
