Review: FontCase

Posted onJune 29th, 2009

FontCase, the winner of Apples Best Mac OS X Leopard Student Project Award 2009 is the best Font Management system we have seen. It has all the looks of any of Apple’s top  applications, masterfully done down to the last pixel.

Created by Bohemian Coding, FontCase is a substitution for Apple’s Font Book, it gives you much more detail and a much better preview to pick your perfect font.

When you first open FontCase, it will import all of the fonts on your computer. Once they are all in the application you with have the option to generate a preview of custom text.

Welcome to the new TheMacFeed! We have made some major changes, along with changing our focus from news, to reviews. Now working mainly on reviews, we create a place where you can always go to get updates on important Applications for both Mac and iPhone.
We now do not only focus on 3rd party software either, we are working to get as much Apple software as we can. By doing that, we will work to become the most popular Application reviewing site for Apple products there is.
More information on our updates will be released at a later time, but for now here are some notes we are releasing:
- We now have a Top Story box that is very unique, The text in every Top Story is not able to be copied.
- The color scheme has changed dramatically from Wood, to White and red.
We will post more about our updates later in the week.

In other news, Apple Co-Founder Steve Jobs had a liver transplant at Methodist University Hospital Transplant Institute in Memphis TN. Mr. Jobs was “the sickest patient on the waiting list at the time a donor organ became available,” said James Eason. Then on Monday, Jobs returned to work.
