Works perfect!
Marker118March 8, 2017
Pros
Easy to install and easy to use.
Cons
Until now it was a one-time-use for me, so i didn't found cons until now.
Summary
It's doing what it should and it's doing it easy.
Eval Worked flawlessly

Pros
Simple to use. Detected source font format without a hitch (Mac PS-1), auto-selected recommended target format which was exactly what I wanted (OpenType font file) and very quickly converted. I only needed for two fonts and the trial was *perfect*. I would and will happily pay for the license should I have another need in the future.
Cons
None that I found.
Summary
A simple font conversion product which does what it says it should, easily and fast. Thank you for creating this useful tool!
The only thing that works.

Pros
This converter recognizes postscript and font suitcase files! Most converters wont recognize files that don't have file extensions (like the two mentioned above). It's also very simple and easy to use. Drag your fonts into the window and it will recognize them for you, even if they're still in zip files. It will also do mass conversions. I've used it to convert 600 fonts at once. Simple and useful.
Cons
The help file on the website doesn't exist any more. It has one in the program, though.

As a typography professional I am glad I found this valuable tool to add to my arsenal.
Doesn't Work at All
asquaredflyerMay 11, 2012
Pros
None at all.
Cons
It doesn't work. It's not a true font converter. And they want money for it. I'm pretty familiar with font software and needed an inexpensive solution. If it doesn't work, it's not worth a thing. Poorly designed UI without any explanation.
Summary
Saved my project!

Pros
Converts postscript fonts to opentype Fix improperly named truetype fonts Batch processing
Cons
None that I could think of.
Summary
Wish I would have found this sooner. Had a Mac project I was moving to PC. CrossFont made it a smooth process.
This product is complete garbage
ruun09May 12, 2011
Pros
It was easy to uninstall.
Cons
It didn't convert a single font... not one of 300. Unless you count being able to convert a TTF into corrupt and unusable files. Plus they called it a free download but you don't know it's a 15 day trial until you get it installed.
Summary
I went out of my way to say how crappy this product is, and I'm relieved to not have spent any money on it.
not free. it is a 15 day trial version

Fast and accurate
orangutan1August 8, 2008
Pros
I just downloaded and converted 2 Mac fonts to PC fonts in less than 5 minutes from start to finish. I'd previously spent an hour search for the Windows version of the font online, without success. This is an excellent program and has a 15 day free trial.
Cons
Summary
very easy to use and works great
ewaluskaApril 17, 2008
Pros
The interface is straight forward and very fast and easy to use. I work on a Mac at work and a PC at home and CrossFont has saved the day many times by making the two platforms font compatible. So far it hasn't failed to convert a font.
