Andrew,
Be careful with FontBook -- before you do anything, check out the Preferences and make sure you check "Always copy font files when installing." One thing you definitely *don't* want is for your fonts to be moved from you Classic System Folder.
To install a PostScript, Font using FontBook, double-click the .bmap file. FontBook will then install *both* the .bmap file and the Type 1 font file to the location you specify in the Preferences.
Also, where are your troublesome fonts installed now? Are they only in your OS 9 System Folder/Fonts? Or did you copy them to the OS X side -- to Macintosh HD/Library/Fonts or ~/Library/Fonts? Are you using the same OS 9 System Folder for actually booting OS 9 *and* running Classic, or do you have two separate OS 9 System Folders?

Have you tried to install the Font using OS X 10.3s Font Book application?
I had a problem with the Golden Age Font, and Font Book opened and installed the font fine for more under OS X.
Well, I'll try that and see. I confess I had thought Font Book was only for installing the fonts it comes loaded with. But isn't a font just a drag-and-drop entity? Why does it need "installing?"
Thanks, BTW, to all those who replied. After posting, I realized that a last-ditch solution would be to make PDFs from all my Finale 2K2 and earlier files: these would then be openable and printable in OSX while retaining the exact appearance that the original files had in OS9.
If it ever comes to that, I'll have some more questions, but for now I'll fool around w. the fonts and see if FontBook installation fixes 'em.
