You've already had an excellent advice from Matthew Hindson. FontDoctor is a very competent and easy to use font tool.

FontDoctor is a professional software tool that will locate and eliminate hard-to-find font problems that wreak havoc on the Macintosh system performance and applications. FontDoctor will scan font folders (on local hard drives or over a network) to locate and repair common font illnesses, including missing Postscript fonts, missing bitmaps, corrupt/damaged fonts, font ID conflicts, extra fonts sizes, mixed fonts types, and lots more.

Do try FontDoctor before giving in to more laborious methods..
LAC (who ever that may be ;-)
But it looks like the other solutions mentioned (TypeTool, Font Doctor, etc.) might be better for your purposes. TTConvertor is only good for TrueType fonts. I think it would give an error if there was an encoding problem though (which is what I think you are running into).

The problem is that I don't *know* whether, or in what fonts, I have an encoding problem unless my eye happens to fall on a misprint--this in scores which I am offering for sale to the public, some of wh. have been in print for years.
What I'd like to do is "simply" go through *all* my fonts and make sure they're OK. It sounds to me as if all the solutions suggested have the same problem as Fontographer, wh. I already have: they would require me to open each font individually and go through multiple steps to identify and correct any encoding problem. Doing this for hundreds of fonts would take me weeks!
