FontAgent Pro Release Provides Fastest Adobe CS5 Activation Yet

Los Gatos, California – Insider Software today is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of FontAgent Pro 4.140 for Macintosh. With this release, FontAgent Pro provides 64 bit support for Adobe InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop CS5. The result of Insider Software’s implementation of 64-bit architecture support is a dramatic increase in performance and auto-activation speed. This release further enhances Insider’s industry-leading, precision font selection and auto-activation.

Industry-Leading Auto-Activation Speed Now Even Faster:
The new release of FontAgent Pro includes an all-new, 64-bit framework and improved plug-ins for Adobe InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop CS5 for Leopard and Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5 and 10.6).

Unique Technology that Ensures Correct Activation:
The latest release provides fast and accurate auto-activation for Adobe Creative Suite 5 using Insider’ s unique FontSavant(TM) technology that ensures that auto-activation always selects the right fonts in your documents – not just a close match or a font that has the same name.

Auto-Activation Done Right:
Only FontAgent Pro gives you full control over the font auto-activation process. Insider’s FontSavant technology detects even the most subtle differences among fonts to deliver the most accurate font activation possible. When no installed fonts match one required by a document, MagicMatch(TM) provides a list of alternate fonts in a designer’s collection – with a relevancy ranking that shows how closely they match the requested font – so designers can choose the best font for the design task. Users can also automatically activate a preferred version of a font if an incorrect font was used in creating a document.

Universal Binary Support on All Hardware:
All FontAgent Pro auto-activation plug-ins offer universal binary support for optimal performance on Intel machines as well as PowerPC hardware.

System Requirements:
FontAgent Pro 4 for Macintosh requires Mac OS X version 10.4 or later, and 15 MB of memory. FontAgent Pro Server 4.0 requires Mac OS X version 10.4.9 or later and 80 MB of memory.

Pricing and Availability:
Release 4.140 of FontAgent Pro is free to users who have already licensed FontAgent Pro 4 and includes free CS5 plug-ins. The product retails for $99.95 for new purchasers and is $49.95 for registered users of FontAgent Pro 3 and earlier. Cross-grades from qualifying competitive products are also available. Existing users and those wanting a 30-day trial version of FontAgent Pro can download the latest release from Insider Software online.

About FontAgent Pro:
FontAgent Pro provides a complete font management system that integrates diagnostics, repair, font selection, font book creation, and design tools in a single powerful, yet simple application for creative professionals. It is the only product to offer such modern features as multiple font libraries, a customizable user interface, live font search, WYSIWYG font viewing, concept searching and a Font Player(TM) that delivers interactive font selection and one-click font book creation. Using FontAgent Pro, administrators can also prohibit unauthorized modifications to font libraries and sets, define multiple startup sets to boost usability, and enable font activation without launching FontAgent Pro.

Three Editions Provide Choice for Users:
FontAgent Pro is available in a standalone desktop edition; a workgroup edition that shares fonts among users without requiring a server or special configuration; and the FontAgent Pro Connected Edition that connects to FontAgent Pro Server to provide maximum font consistency and control across an enterprise. FontAgent Pro Server enables IT managers and system administrators to automate the process of distributing and updating fonts and maintaining font licenses, while providing the control necessary to ensure that the work-flow runs smoothly.

JetCow 1.0 for iPhone – Feed Your Cow, Produce Milk

Rostov-na-Donu, Russia – Announcing BazibaLab, the developer of JetCow, has launched the first release of the game for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad users. The game requires players to feed their cow enough grass to fill five bottles of milk then make it fly or jump to higher platforms, collecting points and rewards as they go. BazibaLab developers plan on keeping the fast paced, challenging game fresh and exciting by adding new elements every three to four weeks.

Players become farmers in the JetCow app, using their cow to supply the farm with milk before they take it on a fun and challenging adventure through different stages of gameplay. Users can fly or jump their bovines to higher and higher platforms, collecting points to increase their score.

BazibaLab has incorporated three different ways to gain points in the game, along with a hidden secret to find and open that lets players know how to milk and how to safely do things more than three consecutive times. JetCow offers OpenFeint support, which means that players can challenge their friends to games, as well as share their scores and rewards online.

Fun JetCow features:
* Fast moving, fun, addictive and challenging gameplay
* 3 ways to earn points
* Fly or jump the cow to higher platforms
* Find and open a small secret to find out how to milk and how to take more than 3 consecutive flights
* Anticipate next 5 steps
* OpenFeint support
* Built-in tutorial
* Game is updated, added to and made even more exciting regularly

To keep the JetCow app fun, fresh and exciting, BazibaLab is planning on adding updates every three to four weeks. There will be new ways of earning points, additional rewards and new skins applied to the game on a steady basis. BazibaLab also plans to incorporate user feedback and suggestions in future developments.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone and iPod touch, iPad
* Requires iPhone iOS 3.1.2 or later, iOS 4

Era of the Dollar HD Game Begins with Kick Flick 2010

Edinburgh, U.K. – Kevin Ng Games today updated iPhone game Kick Flick 2010, adding iPad and iPhone 4 Retina Display support, free to existing users. Kick Flick 2010 is the first game to offer support for both HD devices in the same app at the lowest App Store price of $0.99.

Kick Flick 2010 is a soccer game in which the player takes free kicks. Emulating the free kick heroics of famous players such as David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo, the player must swerve the football around the wall of players and past the keeper, albeit by flicking the ball rather than kicking it. The game lets players compete online both worldwide and with friends.

The iPhone 4′s Retina Display boasts four times the number of pixels of its predecessors. And the iPad, introduced this year by Apple, houses an even larger number of pixels in its 9.7-inch screen. Existing games are scaled up to fill these HD displays, but games which are specifically written for the hardware can take full advantage of the extra screen resolution.

“Since both iPhone 4 and iPad have a similar resolution, they can share the same high definition content,” says developer Kevin Ng. “This means we’ll no doubt see many more games take advantage of the high definition screens of both devices in the near future. Packaging all the versions together so that the customer only has to buy the game once at 99 cents is, we think, great value.”

The update also adds a new game mode, gameplay tweaks and visual upgrades which users of older iOS devices can still access. “We’ve really upgraded the flick detection in this version, and it is now deadly accurate,” says Kevin Ng. “To curve the ball, you swipe through the ball off-center, much as the pros will kick the ball off-center in real life. We saw that in other games you must draw a curve to swerve the ball, and thought we could offer something more authentic and connected than that. We simply give the player full control over direction, power and spin through a single flick, and let physics do the rest.”

Game Features:
* iPad and iPhone 4 Retina Display support for HD gameplay
* Online leaderboards to compete against your friends and worldwide
* OpenFeint, Facebook and Twitter integration
* Earn Achievements with your skills (online connection required)
* Three game modes, each with online leaderboards
* Kick Flick Academy will teach you how to bend the ball like a pro
* Unique full 3D neon art style
* Realistic physics simulation using the Bullet Physics Engine
* 3D menus and interface.
* Option to turn music off and play your own music in the background

Device Requirements
* iPhone, iPad and iPod touch compatible
* iOS 3.2 or later
* 14.1 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Kick Flick 2010 is available now on the App Store for $0.99 USD (£0.59, 0.79 Euro) in the Games category.

ch@tter 1.3 adds Instapaper and New Web Functionality

Austin, Texas – ch@tter(TM) v1.3, the leading Twitter visualization app on the iPad, is now available. Visually lively and highly interactive, ch@tter lets you easily separate and categorize incoming tweets. The new version helps you share links from your Twitter stream with everyone you know by tweet, email and Instapaper bookmarks.

ch@tter’s innovative “avatar treemap” makes it easy for the user to scan the top 30 reference-rich tweets. In addition, by partitioning your Twitter timeline into “friend” and “caster” groups, it lets you quickly see both what is important to your inner circle and the rest of the world.

Version 1.3 adds support for Instapaper and useful features to its web view. Instapaper, one of the leading web bookmarking services, provides a place to preserve reference tweets so all your systems can easily use them.

Dialog controls are automatically arranged according to official Apple and Microsoft Human Interface Guidelines, but users also have complete freedom to adjust control size, margins, which controls begin a new line of controls, and so on.

New Features in Version 2.0:

* New controls:
Radio buttons, password fields, and multi-line text input fields of any size.

* Easier dialogs:
Now each control requires only two parameters – the control type and the text it should display.

* Automatic layout:
Each control will automatically align, size, line-break, and position itself in relation to the controls around it using official Apple and Microsoft Human Interface Guidelines.

* Increased flexibility:
There are now 80 optional named parameters to do things like adjust the size, margins, alignment, and position of controls or dialogs – even group controls to move together or become equal in size.

* Easy results:
Get results by referring to the control’s text label or save control results directly to 2empowerFM variables.

* Overhauled documentation:
New, 77-page documentation gets users started quickly with step-by-step examples and plenty of screenshots. A second section demonstrates advanced features while an expanded FileMaker database contains even more examples.

* Screen scaling support:
Dialogs Unlimited now provides full support for Windows DPI scaling on modern, high resolution displays. Dialog controls won’t cut off text, wrap incorrectly, or display off-center like in every other dialog plug-in tested at high DPI.

“This release has blown people away. Everyone is amazed by how easy and powerful version 2.0 is. Compared to version 1.5, it’s like a whole new plug-in.” – Chris Dragon, Dracoventions

Existing Features:

* Floating dialogs:
Users may create multiple dialogs that float above FileMaker and contain instructions, links to more information, or buttons that launch scripts.

* Stylized text:
Dialogs may include stylized text with support for custom fonts, bold, italic, color, bullet lists, margins, indents, and so on.

* Pop-up menus:
Menu controls in dialogs can pop up single or multi-level menus.

* Keyboard shortcuts:
Keyboard shortcuts can activate buttons and toggle checkboxes.

* Progress bar:
A progress bar dialog can be used to give users an idea of how much longer a script will take. The progress bar also includes a cancel button the script can use to gracefully stop its processing.

Pricing and Availability:
2empowerFM Dialogs Unlimited 2.0 is a free upgrade for those who purchased a license within the last year. A single-user license is $59 (USD) and new lower prices are available for multiple users, plus a new unlimited-user option. Developer licenses are also available. Fully functional, 30-day demo copies can be downloaded with no sign-up required.
