BURRO  I've just changed over to a new machine. So the path to my fonts has changed -- all those fonts that were not already in my system folder show up as damaged.

Is there anyway I can instruct FontExplorer to alter one path,

e.g.

/Volumes/Name01/Resources/FontExplorer_Font_Sets/

to another,

e.g.

/Name01/Resources/FontExplorer_Font_Sets/

for all fonts?

Thanks!

MIGUELD  The best font manager on Earth. This is what Mac is all about. This is a breath of fresh air if you come from Suitcase Fusion.

I love the attention to detail in the program, the icons and widgets, the intuitive design, the responsiveness.

I'm gonna buy some fonts on their store to send them some money. They deserve it.

MACDOCMIKE  Actually this is the BEST app out there for diagnosing font issues I've found since Font Reserve in OS9. The fact that it's free is just icing on the cake.

Make sure to turn on Conflicts in the view menu and believe it or not... one font CAN crash your entire system. (regardless of what font-management app you use)

This is the most quickly updated font-manager, with plug-ins for all major apps, and I have yet to have a conflict of any kind because of it (since the first 2 days of 10.5's release).

Make sure to clean the application font caches and the system font folders (2 of the many handy things it does) once you've added your fonts, restart, and you should be almost there.

Next step, activate all of your 'A' fonts and check the conflicts section for duplicate activated fonts. Delete the dup's and you should be all set (after repeating through 'Z'.).

I've managed hundred's of clients with more than 10,000 faces each and this is the ONLY app that handles them all consistently and reliably.

Enjoy!

MYSHKIN2  Do NOT download this and install it. It crashes ALL THE TIME not only giving you the spinning rainbow of death for the program, but LOCKING UP YOUR ENTIRE SYSTEM causing you lose all your unsaved work.

ZANGIEF  Love it, just love it. One of my gripes with Leopard's Font Book is that when you delete a font before removing it from a collection, its entry stays in the collection if you view it from the font panel and the only way I've found to fix this is removing and re-creating the collection, a major inconvenience. Those of us who collect and use large numbers of fonts (me and some other posters) will find that Font Book just won't cut it. That's when it's time to bring in Linotype, who knows how to do fonts and how people want to do fonts.

KOBALT  Never a problem with this *free* app and now when we had the trouble with OSX 10.5.2 the devs sorted it within 24 hours. Fabulous! I wish all apps could be this wonderful! :)

THEOPH  Version 1.2.3 fixed the problems I was having with the Dock freezing in OS version 10.5.2.

PHATBANK  Also had problems with 10.5.2. Still auto-activate problems, and it's causing havoc with System UI Server; several menu extras (keychain, Spaces, Airport) will hang with any interaction until FontExplorer is quit.

Love this program; hope it's updated soon.

FRIBHEY  linotype fontexplorer doesn't play nice with 10.5.2, safari hangs and crashes on several sites (daringfireball, pitchforkmedia and even macupdate to name a few). the only way to get these working is to quit fontexplorer.   
(Version 1.2.2)

SUBLEVEL5  I'm having trouble running this under 10.5.2. It's been causing system wide problems.
