This feature is an asset for pro designers, who often use fonts that might conflict or become confused with system fonts. FontAgent will move your original system fonts into a new folder that you can easily retrieve in an emergency. This allows you to use FontAgent Pro to activate, deactivate, delete, or move system fonts wherever or however you wish.

When the Customer service people log back in, they download the office fonts from SS.If you let FontAgent Pro take control of your system fonts, it then copies them into a new FontAgent Pro fonts folder. Our Customer service Department needs the office fonts.occasionally they need to run clean up my fonts as well. If you run our app, it cleans out the microsoft fonts. We don't deploy the microsoft fonts in the Office package we have. Our desktop workers don't ever need the Microsoft Fonts that get loaded into /Library/Fonts. We keep AppleSymbols, AppleGothic, geneva, Keyboard, LastResort, LucidaGrande, MarkerFelt, Monaco in the /System/Fontsįirefox likes to use helevetica, you will need to load that into fontbook, open Firefox, change the default font to LucidaGrande.Īll other fonts are addressed per user. We only have Arial in the /Library/Fonts for our Filemaker ticket system. We strip down our fonts to the basic fonts needed. They got tired of hearing "Did you run clean up my fonts? Did you reboot?" It took some time, almost all our users run it before calling us. If font book can't load or unload fonts.we run the app and reboot. Thanks, Dan.ĭo you run that cleanup script regularly as a policy or just as needed?Īlso, how do you determine "unnecessary fonts"? That sounds like exactly what I'm looking for.

They tend to think that I can always find a way to make anything work for them, which I try to, but they don't care how they're done, or how much of a pain in the butt they are to do. Really it's just because it would be on the graphic design department to pay for it and I don't think they have the money.

The Fonts themselves were purchased years ago, we don't have maintenance and don't update them, so they don't have to pay for that anymore. Part of the reason they don't want to spend money on a central solution, which I've suggested in the past, or even a local management solution like FAP is because IT used to pay for FAP but since only the graphic design department uses it anymore the beaurocrats decided that if they wanted to continue it the Art and Design Department would have to take over paying for maintenance. I guess I was trying to keep them separate from system fonts in /Library/Fonts, but why? I don't like telling people to copy stuff in and out of their Library folders because of the dicey nature of other things in there, but I could make a package of the 200 included fonts in /Library/Fonts, then allow the users to add the others from the shared location through Font Book. Now that I think as I type, your solution could work. What I've done with the baked in image is get about 200 commonly used fonts, as reported by the graphic design profs, and have those installed in everyones Font Book, centrally, then just putting up instructions to add fonts through font book from the /User/Shared folder. I know they still can, but I fear them copying all of the fonts into they're ~/Library/Fonts directory and then I've got a bazillion fonts duplicated in everyone's folder. When we used that we had lazy students that would just go in and activate them all. We used to use FontAgent Pro but the college of fine arts doesn't want to pay for it. I ask this because we have Adobe Font Folio.so like 3000 fonts.

That sounds like a decent solutions, but since Font Book allows activation and deactivation of fonts, couldn't we just install all of them in one location (meaning no dups) and let users activate them and deactivate them at will.
