January 09, 2004
San Francisco, CA - Digital Anarchy, providing special effects software for Adobe, Apple and Discreet products, has announced the availability of Text Anarchy 2.1 for After Effects and Final Cut Pro.
Text Anarchy 2.1 is the newest version of Digital Anarchy's best selling plug-in, and includes several feature enhancements for creating and animating text in After Effects and Final Cut Pro.
Text Anarchy 2.1 includes many product optimizations, the company describes, the most significant of which is improved font support. Other key improvements in Text Anarchy 2.1 include:
* OpenType support: In addition to TrueType and Postscript type 1 fonts,
all the Text Anarchy filters now support OpenType fonts.
* Improved support for foreign language character sets: All filters now
support characters with diacritical marks, Unicode, and large character
set fonts such as Asian character sets. Random character generation is
also improved to include the additional character support.
* Improved speed in Final Cut Pro 4.1: Final Cut Pro 4.1 users should
see a significant speed increase when using the filters.
* Bug fixes and other improvements: Many of the filters have seen small
improvements and bug fixes that make the filters more stable and useful
overall.
Text Anarchy 2.1 is composed of eight versatile filters that provide
specific methods for producing a wide variety of text effects, ranging
from randomly animating text for background effects to creating effects
for titles. Some of the filters use particle systems specifically
designed for text, while others allow the animation of characters on a
letter-by-letter basis or by using paths to control the look and
attributes of the text.
