## Suitcase Fusion

Compatibility Guide

### You update your hardware every few years.

Your software needs a refresh, too. Explore [Connect Fonts](https://www.extensis.com/connect/fonts?hsLang=en).

This page provides details on the support status of Suitcase Fusion auto-activation plug-ins with design applications running on recent operating systems.

Ready for Apple Silicon systems

Suitcase Fusion is a Universal application: it can run on both M1 and Intel Macintosh systems.

Our auto-activation plug-ins are also ready for Apple M1 systems.

Photoshop users: The Extensis Font Panel in Adobe Photoshop requires more work on our part to run natively on an M1 system. If you need the Font Panel in Photoshop on an M1 system, you can run Photoshop using Rosetta. See [this article](https://help.extensis.com/hc/en-us/articles/4404385898139) for information.
