The fonts seem to be packed inside of Suitcase 2.0. I had this program set up on OS 7.0.1 and I could use Suitcase to view and check out fonts. After upgrading to 7.1, the extension for Suitcase doesn't work. The computer locks up while trying to load it. This makes sense, since Suitcase seems to load like Chooser or Finder--it shows up when you click on the icon at the left menu bar. I tried copying the extension over to the classic Mac. It loads okay there and does show the full list of fonts. It can't actually FIND these fonts, so I believe that they still exist on the IIci, packed away so that they can't be accessed by anything but Suitcase. The fix to recover them seems to be to upgrade to Suitcase 2.1 which was designed to work with OS 7.1. That's what I'm going to do--I think I've located a copy of the software to fix it. It looks like whatever Postscript fonts I had were located in the System folder and I moved them to the new Fonts folder after the upgrade. The missing fonts are probably True Type fonts. Once I have Suitcase upgraded, I should be back in business. -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
