Extensis Font Reserve 1.7 Server FRS-79987 Manuale Utente

white paper

production users almost full access, allowing them to add and delete fonts from the server, view 

all the fonts in the library, and activate and copy fonts from the server. Meanwhile, graphic 

designers may be given permissions to add and activate fonts, but not delete fonts or copy fonts 

from the server. Copy editors may be restricted to seeing and activating only a subset of fonts 

on the server and not have permissions to delete or copy fonts from the server. Take a look at a 

possible configuration for a newspaper environment: 

•  The administrator sets up four workgroups: Editorial, Design, Ad Creation, and Production. 

•  The Editorial workgroup can see and access only a subset of the entire font library—those fonts 

chosen to be used in editorial content—and they are barred from adding fonts to or deleting 

fonts from the server. 

•  The Design workgroup can also see and access only a subset of fonts—those fonts chosen to be 

used in the newspaper’s standard template, which includes more and different fonts than the 

subset the Editorial group accesses. They also can’t add fonts to or delete fonts from the server. 

•  The Ad Creation workgroup can see and access all the fonts owned and licensed by the 

newspaper, but they cannot access fonts provided by clients specifically for output of their ads. 

Users in this workgroup cannot add or delete fonts. 

•  The Production workgroup can see and access the entire font library, whether the fonts are 

owned by the newspaper or supplied by clients. Production users can add fonts to the server as 

they receive them from clients.

Within each workgroup, the systems administrator can select one or two trusted people to  

act as workgroup administrators. These workgroup administrators have full permissions within  

all their workgroups, allowing them full access to add, delete, and copy fonts to and from the 

server as needed. 

Font Reserve Server is ideal for any environment juggling many fonts or users, whether or not 

it has a full-time systems administrator. For example, educational institutions can make fonts 

available to students without the risk of losing assets and service bureaus can prevent workflow 

interruptions with instant font access at all workstations.
