Previous release notes

Changes in version 2.0.2

 

Resolved

  • An issue where the Plugin Manager would sporadically show the incorrect path to a plugin, usually on multi-partition machines.
  • An issue where sets and smartsets were missing after upgrading from Linotype FontExplorer® X 1.2.3 to FontExplorer X Pro. The database will automatically repair itself when FontExplorer X Pro 2.0.2 is started.
  • An issue where activated fonts were not reactivated after restarting the system.
  • An issue where under Mac OS® X 10.4 the setup assistant would activate each time FontExplorer X Pro started.
  • An issue where auto font activation in Adobe® InDesign® via plugIn would occasionally hang.
  • An occasional crash during font import.
  • An issue where FontExplorer X Pro would sporadically hang when opening the authentication dialog, e.g. when attempting to clean the font caches.
  • An issue where fonts that were automatically activated on import were not active after the user logged out and logged in to the mac although the preference setting under "Advanced" was set to "never deactivate".
  • Updating from Mac OS X 10.5.x to Mac OS X 10.5.7 resolves a problem where "Rare Ligatures" did not display. The Mac OS update resolves this problem in all FontExplorer X Pro versions (1.2.3, 2.0 and 2.0.1).


Known issues

  • After upgrading from FontExplorer X version 1.2.3, the permanently activated fonts will be located in the "Activated until Log Out" set. If you wish to keep these fonts permanently activated, click on the set, select all fonts and drag them to the "Activated Permanently" set.
  • Mac OS X 10.5.x only:
    Removing font suitcases from a System Collection may cause FontExplorer X Pro to crash if some of the fonts in the suitcase are not activated. This may also occur when resolving conflicts and the font suitcase is contained in a System Collection.
    • Using Mac OS X 10.5.6:
      Activate or deactivate the entire suitcase and then remove the suitcase from the collection.
    • Using Mac OS X 10.5.7
      Move the fonts you wish to keep to a new System Collection, then delete the System Collection containing the suitcase font.
