There is also at least one loose screen font in 'Crush No. They are printer fonts separated from their bitmap screen fonts. Those all belong in one of the Rockwell folder with their matching screen fonts.

Case in point are the four Rockwell font files that begin with Rockw. It took me a little while to determine what some of the other icons were. There's also quite a few other Type 1 PostScript outline printer fonts loose. Need to be in their folder to work, but I would imagine you'd want them in their appropriate spot for organizational means. There's a few fonts that I would guess to be TrueType with a.

Looks like the current forum software ignores the center tag. Other than that, most of it looks organized. You also have an outline font for Wood Ornaments loose. I don't have a distinction between bold and light. But my folder for that font is just called 'Copperplate Gothic'. At least, that's where they are in my set. Of the three Copperplate folders you have, I believe they belong in the one name 'Copperplate Gothic Bold'. I also see that a couple of PostScript Type 1 printer outline fonts for Copperplate have been separated from the rest of the set. You can ditch the duplicates if there are copies in the correct folder. Though they may be and FEX just made copies of them. The 'AdobeSanMM' and 'AdobeSerMM' fonts are supposed to in the /Library/Application Support/Adobe/PDFL/7.0/Fonts/ folder (for Acrobat 7). That's not to say there aren't any issues. You mention that FEX 'grabbed fonts from everywhere on my machine, System fonts and all.' But I don't the any of the system fonts in your separate Fonts folder. Note that you will lose all fonts sets you have created, but it should at least clear that problem up. Go to the Preferences folder in your user account and toss the folder named Suitcase. You'll get the conflict message where no conflict exists when they get messed up.

The quick fix is probably to throw out the preference files for Suitcase. Thanking in advance those who are able to assist in resolving my problem. I have included links below to screen shots of my Fonts library as it stands now.

So, I need to know how to remedy this problem, and how to clean up my Fonts folder in terms of can I throw away all those repeat fonts. Now I have a silly big font list in there, because FEX grabbed fonts of names and places that I have never seen or heard of before, including many duplicates and triplicates now. As mentioned above, when Uninstalling FEX as directed by Linotype's instructions, I replaced all the fonts it had cataloged in the Linotype library back into my main Fonts folder. All I know is that Ģ/ When FEX created its' own library(which it appears to have done a very nice, clean and through job of), it grabbed fonts from everywhere on my machine, System fonts and all.

Okay! So I have looked into the aforementioned folder, and find no sign of any fonts with same names or that would appear to be conflicting, there, or in any other Fonts folder in the Library, username Library, or the Classic OS9 System Folder, so I have NO IDEA as to what is going on at all. You must remove the fonts from the System Fonts folder and restart before you can activate these fonts with Suitcase.' 'There are fonts in the suitcase 'Font Name' that conflict with fonts in the System Fonts folder. I can Add fonts into Suitcase, but when I attempt to activate them, I get the following message Well, of course there has to be a PROBLEM! Next, I opened up Suitcase to go through the process of adding all my fonts again so as to have access to them in OS9 and OSX. FEX had moved most of my fonts to a Linotype library in a nice tidy fashion, so I put them back into my main Fonts folder located on my hard drive. So, I uninstalled FEX according to Linotype's instructions which are very through. This is bad for me, as I still use PageMaker and have close to 20 years worth of my docs as PageMaker documents. I did so, and THEN discovered too late that FEX does not support Classic mode : (.

I was VERY impressed with FEX, to the point that I figured I would install it on my home G4, and move on from the less than brilliant Suitcase. I use a G4 at work as well, and recently installed Linotype FontExplorer X (FEX) on it to manage my font library on that machine. I was using Extensis Suitcase 10.2.2, or should I say, managing with Suitcase (as it is far from perfect), and basically cruising along just fine on my home based G4. HELP! Well, I made a mistake, and now I am in a pickle.
