I don't know when it changed. Glad I archived the old one.

Here's a link to the old one:

Thanks for the link

Just so you won't be the last to post Dan... thanks for the heads up : )

given the cost for FontExplorer relative to Suitcase Fusion and FontAgent, can I have advice on which tool is the best buy?

If they are charging $79 now, that dramatically tips the scales. I'm going to have to re-evaluate the options.

There's also Fontcase. It seems nice, but I haven't really tried it in depth yet. It's not free, but a bit cheaper than $79.

Yup, that FEX pricing structure was announced at Macworld this year.

Dan, if you get a chance, check out the newest version of Suitcase Fusion 2. We've got a free 30 day demo up on our site. I think that you'll be pleased.

Does Fusion still lock up all of your fonts into that database thing? I hated that last time I tried the demo. I like having a directory structure that I can work with manually if I so choose.

Hi Dan, I think you can opt not to use the font vault thing.

Yup, Josef is correct, you can choose whether to have all of your fonts stored in the Vault, or add them in-place from your disk. You can choose this option from the Preferences: Suitcase Fusion 2 > Preferences.
