Removing excess fonts
One aspect of Mac OS X font management that seems to be overlooked is concept of location hierarchy. For example, if you have two fonts of the same name, the font used will be based upon it's location in the hierarchy. Apple has a useful document called "Using and Managing Fonts in Mac OS X" which explains this concept. Bases upon this, it is easy to predict which font would be used in the case of duplicates. My suggestion would be to reduce the number of font locations (if practical). One may also replace the .dfonts with postscript versions (if available). Lucida Grande and Helvetica are essential system fonts.
Removing excess fonts
the idea is to manage fonts through your font management program. an earlier post hit the nail on the head...each version of each font is different...so the goal MUST be to have complete control over what fonts are loaded. |
