***Monotype Imaging Adds New Functionality and Products to
Fonts.com

WOBURN, MA
March 16, 2005

Monotype Imaging Inc. has enhanced Fonts.com with several
features, including the ability to purchase multi-user licenses,
establish user accounts and find fonts through added search
capabilities. Fonts.com has also debuted typefaces from the Font
Bureau and FontFabrik foundries, adding more than 1,200 products
which can be viewed, purchased and downloaded from their website.

Standard licenses purchased through Fonts.com for most font
products automatically protect up to five users. Customers
seeking additional users on a single license can simply increase
the number of users displayed in the shopping cart. A multi-user
license is then created on a per-user basis at a discounted rate,
instead of having to purchase the product multiple times to cover
more than five users.

New user accounts allow customers to store contact information
for faster check-out procedures. Customers can also manage
subscription preferences for Fonts.com's electronic and hard copy
newsletters, "Clicks" and "National Typographic."

Search options have been enhanced to include product searches by
name, keyword, typeface classification, font foundry and typeface
designer. The ability to display sample font images automatically
while searching can be turned on or off. Visitors can also filter
searches to limit results according to a specific computer
platform or font format.

Additional detail is included on product pages when available,
such as the typeface designer, font classification and whether
the product contains the euro currency symbol. Product pages
display all fonts included in the product and list other packages
that contain any of the displayed fonts.

Also added are more than 1,200 products from two font foundries
new to Fonts.com - Font Bureau and FontFabrik. Based in Boston,
Font Bureau specializes in creating typographic identities for
newspaper publishers. Font Bureau's Interstate(R) family is based
on the signage alphabets of the U.S. Federal Highway
Administration. FontFabrik of Berlin, Germany, is home to the
LucasFonts(TM) collection. FontFabrik's Thesis(TM) family
contains more than 300 fonts, including the Serif(TM) and The
Sans(TM) typefaces.
