FontDoctor owners get 50% discount

We often get questions about “crossgrade” discounts for our existing customers. A crossgrade is a discounted software purchase usually available only to current customers. It’s sort of a way to say “thank you” to loyal users.
If you already own FontDoctor (i.e. have a valid FontDoctor 7.x serial number) then you can order FontXChange (our Mac font converter) for only $49.99 for the Single User License. That’s half off the full price. Nice.
All you need is your current FontDoctor serial number and then just click here

There are tons of dingbat fonts available out there – and a lot of them are useless. But there are also many that are very useful. The ThinkDesign blog has a good list of the more useful ones, and they’re free to download and use.
