[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1622407, member: 175845"] I must admit that using and organizing fonts in OS X is something that could sure be improved, Font Book helped a bit, but that was eleven years ago since it was added. Even Apple's recent kb is pretty pathetic: [url=http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201722]Mac OS X: Font locations and their purposes - Apple Support[/url] One site you may find useful is [I][B]Font Management in OS X, by Kurt Lang[/B][/I]: [url=http://www.jklstudios.com/misc/osxfonts.html]Font Management in OS X[/url] And then if you use Adobe or Microsoft applications, they can heve their own rules and problems. i.e.: [url=http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-fonts-mac-os-x.html]Troubleshoot fonts | Mac OS X[/url] Then add FontExplorer X Pro into the mix, and one ends up with a confusing mess almost. And especially if one has just [I]upgraded[/I] to Yosemite, one needs the latest version it seems: [url=http://www.fontexplorerx.com/?CMP=MjEzfDc1MjU4]FontExplorer® X Pro - Font Management Software & Free Trial[/url] Anyway, good luck with your fonts and I hope you got things sorted out. ;) [/QUOTE]
