Hi Janice, Font Book was introduced with Panther. You won?t find the application included with OS X 10.2.8.
Without going into a lot of detail, there is one tech document that will explain most aspects of this topic in one easy to read .pdf. http://manuals.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Manuals/overview/L25032B_EN .pdf Check it out and feel free to throw follow up questions to the group.

I'm running 10.2.8 Maybe I'll have to search the Appleworks User Group site. Jan On Tuesday, February 17, 2004, at 07:59 AM, Marta Edie wrote: > P.S. I am running OSX Panther.
