[QUOTE="rcronin, post: 472288, member: 24079"] Hi there everyone! I recently added fonts to Font Book. Now MS Word will not run. When I open it, I get ______ font is corrupt and needs to be removed. Then I have to click OK and get a long pause with the disco ball and the message comes back with the next font in the list. Since I have over 400 now, this takes a while and in the meantime I can't use MS word. I went into Fontbook and disabled all the new fonts and relaunched Word, but it the same error message comes up. If you're wondering I have NeoOffice and gave up on it b/c it crashed too much (reinstalled twice) and I had to save two versions of everything I did so I could share docs with other people. If the recommendation is to get Suitcase, will you send me a link, b/c all I could find was Suitcase updates and I need the whole thing. And how difficult is it to get rid of Fontbook? I've read here that messing with your fonts -disabling them or resolving duplicates can cause endless problems.... Thanks all! [/QUOTE]
