#Fontlab studio 5.1 mac serial update#
The price is bad, but the fact that you cannot be bothered to update your software to run on recent Macs natively shows a gross lack of concern for your customers, especially considering FontLab's widespread use in typeface design. You charge nearly $700 for a product that is not a universal binary. I'd like to know if I'll still be young enough to use it so I know whether to start saving now.įontLab, *please* edit your software. It would certainly be nice if Fontlab could provide a timetable for the release of version 6 which would narrow it down to a particular year, at least. So, high marks for features and capabilities, but so-so to lousy everywhere else.

The manual has a horrendous amount of material to cover and doesn't do it in a very comprehensible way. More than about 3 seconds of the pinwheel and I know it's going bye-bye.įortunately the app starts up quickly and saves rapidly, as well as saving a backup and having an autosave. There are also too many circumstances when instead of reporting an error of some kind, it simply crashes.

However, under 10.6.8 on my Mac Pro at least, it is absolutely riddled with peculiar behaviors and bugs which have to be negotiated like a minefield. It's loaded with redundancies in ways of doing the same thing and customization, though I hesitate to call that bad (if they all worked properly).

The UI could definitely be made easier to use and in some cases is quite bewildering. Having had the chance to actually use the software fairly extensively, I can actually rate it at last.įontlab Studio's complexity and breadth are amazing.
