Sorry this boring. The agency I work for is having a problem with our printers.
There's a couple of versions of this font floating around on our servers that clash with theirs and we want to rename the fonts so, when freelancers come in, they won't use the wrong version.
We contacted the font supplier and they'll re-supply it for £200 but then charge another £200 because it's illegal. Is there an easy way for us to rename fonts so they appear differently in the menu's in Quark, Illustrator etc?
I know that when I've built fonts in the past you give them a name as they appear in the menu and another name as they appear in files. Any thoughts.

open fontographer and re-export
or
uise one of those font conversion apps (forget the name)

Cheers rask, thought it might be that.

That's a nasty policy. Lemme guess: the foundry is Linotype or Emigre.
