We have MicroType 6 installed on all of our computers at school. Currently, students submit print to PDFs of their results. I know there is a Teacher Utility but I don't know how to access it.

Yes, there is a version of MicroType available for Mac. You can find more information about this on the official website. You have the possibility to download the SITX package that can be installed in your computer. You might need to wait a little before the package is completely downloaded to your computer.

My son uses this program in school and is supposed to practice 20 minutes each night, but we don't have the program at home. I found the Demo version online, but where can I get the full version for use at home?

A demo version is available on the link posted below, but if you want to acquire the application, then you'll have to get in touch with the developers since no purchase page is provided for this purpose.

Contact the developers of the application through the following link: http://www.microtype.swlearning.com/mt4/talktous/talktous.html

MicroType is a product that isn't compatible with modern operating systems like Vista, 7, 8 or RT. It was designed and released for Windows 98, ME, XP, 2000. You could try to run the application in compatibility mode, but I doubt it will work properly since it has support for old operating systems.

Unfortunately, MicroType doesn't have the feature that you are looking for. If you are not pleased with this application, I recommend you to search another tool that meets your requirements on Google Search or you can take a look through Software Informer database.

Answer by Sean Hill

I've crawled most of the websites, but couldn't find anything about it or the error in MicroType. The KB Skill Builder doesn't appear to be available on any of the visited websites.


I strongly recommend checking the built-in Help file to see if there are any errors listed there. Also, check the guides posted on the official website. There are 3 available for you to choose.

I need to know if Microtype works on Apple computers.

Stephen Prastman
Answer by Stephen Prastman

Yes, the application works on Apple computers having Mac OS X as the running operating system, but the DEMO is provided in SITX format which means you will need another application to unpack it. Luckily, there is Stuff It Expander that does this job.
