Teacup Software Releases Free TypeFitter Plug-in
Teacup Software, Inc. announced today that its TypeFitter plug-in, a popular tool for fitting text without compromising quality typography, is now being offered free for Adobe InCopy. The free version for InCopy is fully featured with no limitations on its use. The plug-in fits type by adjusting settings in InCopy’s justification algorithms, giving better results than just adjusting tracking or scaling.

We think that lots of InCopy users are going to see great benefit from TypeFitter.”
