(Nasdaq:TYPE), a leading global provider of text imaging solutions, are

management solution for $999 until Dec. 31, 2009. The package includes

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.
