Try this: http://www.aksoft.net/progs/akfo…
I've installed it on every PC I've worked on since 2000.

Are these type1/postscript friendly? I've been kinda glancing around occassionally aswell for my font management, but most don't support the good schtuff.

Are type1/postscript fonts those ending with the .pfm extension? The Adobe fonts? If so, then yes -- but it shows all the fonts in C:WINDOWSFonts -- the .ttf and .pfm together.

extensis suitcase
- jimeeboy510
im lookin for a font manager that has previews like suitcase and font lister, but had capabilities to add and delete fonts. suitcase looks good but its not easy to add and del fonts. font lister is good but it hasnt been updated in 2 years and can not yet preview postscript and opentype fonts. anyone?

suitcase is what you are lookng for. It is damned easy to add and remove fonts anyway.
fucking double click
- jimeeboy510
ok, so double clickin turns them on and off, but it doesnt delete the font. if you delete the font, it only removes them from the suitcase, but not from your harddrive, which is what Font Reserve and Font Lister does. Correct me if im wrong here.

I've been suing suitcase ever since last Fall when ATM kept causing my laptop to blue screen whenever I hit the fn key... apparently, it makes a call to an address used by the OS and, after 100+ crashes in figuring that out, my HDD crashed the next day. so... from then on I say fuck ATM, I'm a suitcase user now.
