Is anybody else having issues with fonts since upgrading to Tiger. When I activate fonts with Font Book I find that they are not available in most of my applications. I downloaded the trial version of Suitcase to see if this would fix the problem, and found that it would crash as soon as it opened up.

Can anyone direct me to a solution for using fonts in OS X Tiger

i had the same issue right after upgrading to Tiger 10.4.1. and my suggestion is try using fontagent pro. it works for me.
good luck

Thx dog, I'll def give that a shot. Crazy that Tiger caused all of this font chaos

Do you have strange redraw problems with FAP?
I have to quit and restart the app every time I change anything at all (even when I only turn a font on or off), because no window gets updated. Everything gets done, but there's no visual feedback -- sometimes the window even freezes.
