Plugins
Fontcase can be extended with all sorts of plugins. We've written a few ourselves, which you can download here for free.
Once you've downloaded a plugin, double-click to install it. After that you can find them somewhere in the menu, depending on the plugin.
- Export to Font Panel Collections you created in Fontcase will show up in the standard System font panel.

- Clear System Font Cache If fonts of you are behaving weird, you can always try to clear the System Font Cache. This plugin lets you do that.
