Extensis plug-in now supports Google Web Fonts
Tuesday, November 8, 2011 | 12:00 AM
Do you use Photoshop® to design your website? Looking to spice it up with cool web fonts like Lobster or Dancing Script? Well, now you can do that and more (with over 280 font families) using Google Web Fonts right in Photoshop®.
That’s because, today, Extensis has added support for Google Web Fonts to their Web Font Plug-in for Photoshop®. Now, the entire catalog of Google Web Fonts is only a click or two away!
In addition to making the entire catalog of Google Web Fonts easily accessible, the plug-in takes advantage of the full power of Suitcase Fusion 3. This means that any web fonts you choose to use for your designs are automatically kept up to date, and fully activated as needed. For example, this makes it easy for you to send your Photoshop® files around to your coworkers and not worry whether they have the font(s) installed — it will "just work"!
The free Extensis Web Font Plug-in for Photoshop® can be downloaded now, from: webfontplugin.com

It would be wonderful to see something like this to GIMP users on Linux.

Sam, complex script support is still being developed in browsers, check the Google IO presentation from the web fonts team for more details :)

I'm in the process of installing now. The Suitcase thing is only free for 30 days though... I wonder if the Photoshop extension will work after that?

Tim,
Yes! The Extensis Web Font plug-in for Photoshop will continue to work even after the 30-day demo has expired.
The 30-day demo period is for the Suitcase desktop client -- which you'd need if you want to manage your desktop font workflow as well.
