Which font utility for Leopard
so after several months of use, any consensus on font utilities for leopard?
anybody with big font libraries getting by with just font book ( think that's what the included app is called in english)?
I'm having problems loading fonts into font book.

there's quite a few fans of the free Linotype FontExplorer X here.

lots of us use it happily.
was hoping somebody had another idea.
suggestion: edit the thread title to include the quark limitation?
overbyte, for one, still uses it. i'm sure there's more people that use it. maybe heh
QuarkXPress: Fonts (Mac OS)
Also, don't be embarrassed... there's actually nothing wrong with the recent versions of Xpress. People just like to get on their high horses about stupid stuff
PS the suitcase 30 day trial just period wanted to start right away so i did a forced quit, hoping that it will still give me 30 days when i open it, because tomorrow i'm going on holiday to, surf, windsurf and kiteboard. no f#€%&ing quark, or any other apps except may be some photo downloads and little firefox!
thanks for the advice!
7.31 with Suitcase Fusion. And its all dandy. Apart from the fact its Quark!
Then Indesign came along, i had suspicions about its authenticity as a serious production tool from V.1 to 2, but CS3 Indesign rawks. I keep learning so many new things about it on every job i do. These aren't workarounds, they're new features. And i've just played around with it in CS4 and it is seriously brilliant.
Quark lost their footing, their pricing policy was ridiculous - i mean do you remember when Quark was £1100, and Indesign £295 - and they were slow on improving the tools creative people could use, their loss is Adobe's gain.
I hear people complimenting InDesign all day long. I just never learned how to use it yet :awkward:
Since they fixed opacities in Quark, Ive been comfortable with it so havent bothered to learn InDesign. One day.....
InDesign has a steep learning curve (and it is literally straightforward if you know Photoshop already, because of the shared palettes and stuff) and I have done almost all my projects with ID -- tried to pick up Quark 8 just for the heck of it but I found it real hard to figure out... I didn't even manage to set up a grid with guides (could be I just lazy and subconciusly wanted to stick to InDesign tho )
