Extensis ships free plug-in for Adobe InDesign CS3

Extensis released a free plug-in this week for Suitcase Fusion 12.1.3 to provide font activation and deactivation for Adobe InDesign CS3 documents. The plug-in ensures any time users open an InDesign project; the exact fonts are automatically and accurately activated or deactivated.

The plug-in is available now for download from the Extensis website and is free for registered Suitcase Fusion users. The new plug-in requires Adobe InDesign CS3. Currently, the plug-in is English language only.

Macworld Expo attendees look to online news sites for information first

Extensis asked Macworld Expo attendees "When seeking product information, where do you start?"

More than half (51%) of all people surveyed in the Extensis booth agreed the initial place they look for new product information was from online news sources.

When seeking product information attendees also go direct to the product developer/manufacturer (25%), or turn to an industry contact or colleague for product expertise and information (13%).

Attendees also look to industry publications for knowledge (8%).

Even though attendees first head online for product information, they do not rate blogs and forums as a leading provider of trusted product news as only three percent of attendees surveyed selected such sites as their primary supplier of information.
