You are so funny, Judith! Even if you are a fontaholic, it's OK as long as
you don't install them all. I try not to put any additional fonts in my
Windows/Fonts folder. That way you don't have any of the problems that you
would have if they were all installed.
In my early pc years, I downloaded and installed lots and lots of fonts. It
got so bad it took for ever to boot up! But, I learned my lesson there. Then
when I found out you could still use them for many programs, I quit
installing them. And only used them by opening & minimizing them.
Creating fonts is way out of my league, but I do make and use EOTs. My
computer is not for business . . . it's just for me and whatever I want to
do. Fun stuff!

Judith, you minimize the font while you are viewing it by
clicking on the "minus" sign up on the far right corner. Just
like you minimize any Windows application.

Ahhhhhhh I thought you squished the fonts somehow (LOL). As you
can tell I am not a fontaholic. Glad I'm not after reading the
article in about.com. Don't want my computer slowed down.
Had this happen on my old laptop which only had 100K boosted to
200K. Probably wouldn't slow this computer down but I only use
two or three fonts now in my work.
Although I did look into how to make fonts -- I like the
creative part of it. Think it would be fun to create some that
look like embroidery or quilt type fonts. And maybe even ones
created from painted flowers. Well sometime maybe I will do
this (smile).
