Removing excess fonts

For me, hell froze over when I woke to realise that Windows now handles fonts better than a MAC - weep.......

Removing excess fonts
Authored by: Jaharmi on May 11, '04 01:31:22PM

I think you need to explain that a bit.

Just because Mac OS X is different in font handling than Mac OS 9, it's worse than Windows? What specifically is worse?

I think half of the problems people have with Mac OS X's font handling are due to the fact that they approach as if they weren't managing critical files used across applications and (potentially) multiple user accounts. Take that together with the various font management utilities that people use, which themselves don't seem to do a good job adapting to Mac OS X, and I think we have the root of our problem.
