If you deal with a lot of fonts on a daily basis, especially if you’re constantly opening ID files from outside sources, or from other members of a design team, then I think auto activation is absolutely essential. I think it depends on what type of work you’re doing in InDesign. Is font auto activation really necessary? Is it worth the $49.98 upgrade to Fusion 2? David would probably say no, but I disagree. So this brings up a popular argument here at IDS. If you’re not using auto activation, then you’re ultimately responsible for making sure you turn on the correct version of Helvetica next time you open a font-filled InDesign file. Suitcase Fusion’s auto activation feature relies on a plug-in that must be installed in your InDesign application Plug-ins folder. However, you will not be able to use auto activation, which allows Suitcase to automatically locate any fonts present in your InDesign documents and activate them for you. I’ve been using the previous version of Suitcase Fusion, and it appears as though you can still use it to manually activate fonts on your system and then access them from the font menu in InDesign CS4. Unfortunately, if you’d like to continue using auto font activation with InDesign CS4, then you must pay for the Suitcase Fusion 2 upgrade ($49.98).
