I got this new CD from a friend that has some really nice font's from T-26. I want to put them in my user fonts folder. But my qustion is if I can just drop the folders in the Fonts folder, or do I have to drag all the little fonts out and then drop them in?!

Is there an easier way? app?

Thanks for the time!

Easier way would be to use a font manager like Suitcase or something else I don't *think* that OSX supports having subfolders in your font folder so you would no doubt have to drag each font in individually. OSX has no max limit to fonts, so the performance hit wouldn't exist, but, with all those fonts in there, applications will slow down big time when you go to their respective "font" menus, while they draw that long a list. And, token jimminy cricket comment here, I hope you *paid* for that CD of fonts...

So how did you do it then? Are you using Suitcase too?

I don't know if he does use Suitcase, but fonts in subfolders within any of the 'Fonts' folders works by default in Mac OS X.
