Smasher For Mac

Smasher is a Mac OS X maintenance tool that enables you to deal with font related issues in an automatic manner. The app will help you both optimize and manage your fonts in order to limit corruption to caches or other font related temporary files.

The Smasher application comes with both installer and uninstaller utilities which means that both processes are fairly user friendly. At the same time, the app’s user interface is quite intuitive to use: you get to select the font groups you want to optimize, smash them, or create backup archives.

Smasher is able to delete the cache for all the fonts used by the system or by a specific application (Adobe, QuarkXpress, or Microsoft utilities), but also CUPS Spool Files. The best part is that you can schedule these cleaning tasks to be performed automatically every day/week/month, or every time you log out, shut down, or restart your computer.

The main purpose of the Smasher application is to eliminate problems that are usually generated by corrupt font temporary files, such as incorrect menus, font substitutions, warnings, unstable applications, and so on.

What’s more, Smasher can automatically detect all the font files included in a certain folder and helps you delete the cache immediately. If you are dealing with large collections, you get to group them by different criteria. Lastly, Smasher can also archive the fonts to ZIP or DMG images.

To conclude, Smasher offers you the possibility to quickly optimize your font collections in order to eliminate the problems generated by corrupt temporary files without having to deal with complex tools. The built-in scheduler eliminates the need for constant user interaction.
