Technical Details for Extensis Suitcase Server X1

Extensis Suitcase Server X1 ... ensure they always have the exact font needed for the job.

A major problem for network administrators is trying to keep rogue or non-approved fonts out of their system. Suitcase Server addresses this problem by giving administrators the ability to control a local user's access to fonts and certain client features. Administrators can control these settings on a per-user basis.

Suitcase Server now stores fonts in a secure and centralized database that is only accessible via the new suitcase Server Administration tools. Suitcase Server helps you manage your font licenses and stay in compliance like no other solution available. It can track font licenses and warn administrators if the number of users who have been given access to a particular font exceeds the license for that font.

Administrators now have the capability to create individual users and assign them to a specific group or groups. Administrators, therefore, have the ability to control permissions and access to the fonts on the server.

Suitcase Server provides as much control as you need and your workflow demands. New functionality allows administrators to control local access to fonts on a per-user basis, preventing unprivileged Suitcase clients from adding their own fonts to Suitcase, as well as monitoring the fonts that are in any of the System Font folders.
