Font Guru Needed
Gabe Weiss:
I recently installed a bunch of fonts in my system font folder. All of them are easily accessible in Quark 4.0, but in Frame 5.5.6, I can't get to a number of them (e.g., ITC Franklin Gothic and Minion Regular SC.) via my paragraph designer. (They *do* appear in my pulldown format/fonts menu, however. ?!?!?)

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Paul Jagnow:
I had the same problem using ATM Deluxe but I never time to research it. However, I succeeded in changing fonts in the ¶ designer by selecting from the pull-down menu. The fonts showed up then in the usual manner. You could give it a try.

Helen Garfinkle:
As long as we're talking about fonts, is there a limit to how many fonts you can use with 8.6? I remember reading something about that somewhere and printing from Pagemaker has gotten very slow and I'm thinking maybe that's it.

Gabe Weiss:
Don't know if 8.6 is radically different from 8.5 (which I'm using), but I believe it's 128 fonts in the system folder, max.

A font management utility, e.g., ATM, might be useful.
