I'm running Jaguar, and any NEW fonts that I add to my system, I drop into:
User/~mike/Library/FontsNow I I don't activate them, but they still come up in font menus for Flash, Photoshop, etc. When I TRY to activate them, Suitcase tells me there is a conflict with the System Fonts.
????
What is going on?It seems to me there isn't really a need for a font manager, ESPECIALLY since no program, besides Photoshop, organizes Fonts into their own SUB-folders.
oh well.

your system font folder is only for system fonts
you need to make a seperate font folder for your other fonts and point suitcase to them

What's going on is that OS X is a bunch of BS. First off, the real problem is that if you are running Suitcase 10 the program has a glitch and I don't know why they say it's OS X compatible because it's totaly screwed up. Basically, if you want to activate a font one by one you have to hide the preview pane, quit suitcase, open suitcase then activate a single font, and then do this for every font Currently i've got Suitcase 10.1.2 and i know there is an update 10.2 but you have to be registered in order to download it so....i don't know if that will help. Also, make sure you have the latest OS X update. I've got 10.2.1 now but will install 10.2.3 later today. Hopefully that will help. In general OS X will eventually grow on me and I will get used to it but for now there is no more apple n, or apple m, everything is all different and it pisses me off because my level of productivity has gone way down becauase i need to be like a monkey troubleshooting stupid problems with every application. Hope this helps bro.

Yeah, i figured the 10.2 update would probably address that issue. I'll have to update soon.
