Alsoft has a free font util
Authored by: 128K Mac on Jan 10, '02 03:11:39PM

Alsoft has a freeware utility, Corrupt FOND Fixer which fixes a problem older fonts had when used in System 8.6 (or 9.x). Some of the older fonts *appear* to be OK under 8.6 or 9.x but aren't to Apple standards required by OS X and Office X.

I also have a utility from Apple named Font First Aid which I obtained ?? and is supposed to address the same issue.

Read article at URL above regarding the need to repair some older fonts. This utility located and repaired a number of older (~1994 & 1995) Adobe Type 1 display font suitcase files I have.
