I just got Quark 6.0 but it does not see all my PS fonts in the OS 9 system folder. How do I get them into OSX on a global basis so all users can use them. Do I need to put them in one by one or leave them in grouped folders.

For example, all the Palatino fonts are in one folder in OS 9, so are all the Eurostile and Franklin Gothic are in other folders.

Forget the help. I just figured out a bigger problem, read on:




Here is the best information I can give you. Do not buy QuarkXPress 6.0.

I have been a Quark user since about 1988 and have had 2 copies - I always upgraded both. I think that is fair for them as I use 2 computers side by side. At home I have a dual 800 desktop and a 15 TiBook. I frequently work with both at the same time then copy to the portable then go to the office. I am a plastic surgeon. I do my own brochures and office forms on Quark. My office desktop is an old 500 AGP G4. When I travel I need a smaller 12 PBook. That is all, 4 computers, one user.

I had one copy of Quark on the 2 portables and the other copy of Quark on the 2 desktops. I just put 6.0 on the 15 Ti and another copy on the dp 800. I cannot put any copies on the other 12 PBook or the office 500 AGP. I called Quark. They said I would have to buy 2 more copies, another $2,000 worth of Quark.

Does this make sense to anybody? One user and 4 computers at 2 different locations needing $4,000 worth of Quark to function?

It gets worse. If I understood them correctly when I get a 17 inch powerbook I would have to but a 5th copy of Quark. I suppose that if my house burned down I would have to buy even more copies as each copy of Quark is sold for only one computer, period.
