I just got Font Agent Pro to try and deal with my fonts and I have a bit of a problem:

Over the course of many installs, recoveries, and yet more installs of OS X I seem to have placed a whole bunch of fonts directly into the System's font folder. Thus Font Agent thinks that all of these fonts are essential to the system and that I shouldn't deactivate them - fair enough but I know that OS X doesn't need 48 fonts to operate properly.

So I was wondering if some wonderful person could post a list of the fonts that OS X does need and that should not be deactivated so that I can move the other fonts into a more appropriate place.

Thanks,

Bill

Lucida Grande and Monaco, but I'm sure there are more.
