FontAgent Pro 5 industrial-strength font manager now offers cloud option

FontAgent Pro 5 industrial-strength font manager now offers cloud option:

FontAgent Pro 5 is an industrial-strength font manager with an interface that’s simple enough for beginners, but with features powerful enough for graphics pros. Version 5 adds helpful new features to an already powerful feature set, and an attractive CloudServer subscription option that eliminates upgrade fees and gives you access to a powerful online font server hosted by Insider Software.

New features

FontAgent Pro has been a favorite among creative professionals because of its simple interface, designer-friendly features, and robust handling of potential font problems such as corrupt or duplicate fonts.

The FontAgent Pro 5's updated basic interface is a model of simplicity.
But when you start clicking around, lots of deep capability is revealed. For example, there’s a Smart Search feature that lets you search for any conceivable combination of font attributes.

The Smart Search feature can search for fonts, Sets, or Libraries that contain any combination of attributes. When complete, you can save the results as a new Set.
The Keyword Search feature lets you use common terms such as Typewriter, Western, Retro, or Holiday. It finds matching fonts on your local hard drive or network, and also shows commercial fonts available for sale. I found it to be remarkably accurate and helpful, but not every single font out there is included in the results—and there’s no way to edit the keywords for a font. You can, however, choose Update Font Profiles from the Tools menu to get the latest font information from Insider Software, such as width, weight, slant, and other information that helps FontAgent Pro assign the unique font identifier used in auto-activation.
