MasterJuggler
Suitcase (from Fifth Generation Systems, Inc.) and
MasterJuggler (from ALSoft) are both System extensions
that make it easier to install and deinstall fonts. Both allow
you to create a separate folder anywhere on your
computer’s hard disk that can hold all your fonts, installed
or not. They also allow you to install any fonts available on
your computer, no matter where they are.
Refer to your Suitcase or Master Juggler manual for
detailed instructions on installing fonts with each program.
Important: Make sure that any time you use
Fontographer’s Generate Font Files command, the font
you’re working on is not installed with Suitcase or
MasterJuggler. If you accidentally leave a font installed and
then choose “Generate Font Files” Fontographer will inform
you if there’s a problem and give you a chance to de-install
the font before regenerating.
Macintosh TrueType font installation
TrueType fonts exist all in one file. There are no separate
screen and printer files like there are for PostScript fonts.
Instead, everything comes in a single suitcase file.
Installing TrueType
Before you can install TrueType fonts in System 6, you will
need to obtain the TrueType INIT from your Apple dealer
or an on-line service.
Drag the TrueType INIT into your System folder and
choose “Restart” from the Finder’s Special menu to install it.
Another requirement for installing TrueType fonts in
System 6 is that you have Font/DA Mover 4.1, which is
available from your Apple dealer. No earlier version of
Font/DA Mover is capable of handling TrueType fonts.
