Hi there: I had forgotten about this until yesterday, but: When I moved this spring from my Supermac C500 clone on 8.6 to the B&W, I got a message while loading fonts that I could only have (I think) 128 fonts in the system. So now there are a bunch that I only have on the backup disc and would like to have available. What's going on with this? Why would I not be able to load them all again, and how can I resolve this?
This is a limitation of the classic Mac OS. You can only have x fonts indexed by the system at once.
I simply swap the fonts in/out manually, by dragging them into/outof the system's Fonts folder.
An alternative is to use products like Suitcase. It will let you enable / disable whole sets of fonts at once.
