HOW TO DELETE FONTS IN PS?

Hi all:

I'm working in PS 7 and would very much like to know how to delete fonts.

I know how to get them in there as I've done that - My Computer>Fonts>etc, etc, AND I know how to delete them out of Widows, but I cannot find a way of getting them out of PS.

I'm experienced with computers and know how to search for folders but I cannot for the life of me find the folder or repository for this

Thanks in anticipation to he/she that answers.

Dumb question, but have you quit and restarted PS since deleting the font? PS builds its font list when you first load it up, so
any fonts you add or delete while it is running will not be updated in the list...

Not all that experience apparently...

OK hotshot, so how is it done??

But you're experienced with computers, I shouldn't
have to point out the obvious.

I got this straight from the photoshop help file

In addition to the fonts installed on your system, Photoshop uses font files in these local folders:

Windows

Program Files/Common Files/ Adobe/Fonts

Mac OS 9.x

System Folder/Application Support/ Adobe/Fonts

Mac OS X

Library/Application Support/ Adobe/Fonts

If you install a Type 1, TrueType, OpenType, or CID font into the local Fonts folder, the font appears in Adobe applications only.

Hope this helps

One could also use a font manager like Adobe's ATM. It allows huge font libraries to be available in subgroups.

But it's clunky and horribly over complicated. Bitstream Font Navigator OTOH is clunky but easy to use and does the job far more effectively. ATm was only really a bonus when TT and Adobe fonts were so different. Now they;re not since the Adobe/MS agreement.

Whilst we are on the subject.........
I like Fontloader - very basic - simple and easy to use. Oh and did I mention free!!!

PostScript and TrueType fonts are no longer so different??? I must be waaaaay out of touch with resent developments in pre-press. LOL

The current agreement between Microsoft and Adobe led to an exchange of patents to allow for the two companies to concentrate on producing fonts which work in both systems and are coded identically in the underlying font description. Whilst old fonts will not conform to this standard (though I believe both companies are working on them) any new iterations (which will mainly be rewrites of the old font code) will do so. Therefore, the fonts will be, for all int4nts and purposes different only in how they look than in the underlying font description code.

So, yes, you may be a little out of touch if you don't know that. :)

Thanks, a lot, Hec.. that is important info. It will make a huge difference for pre-press work, indeed.

No problem. it was a snippet I read a couple of months ago in an article on "font wars" about how MS and Adobe agreed, disagreed, refused to talk, and eventually decided that, working together they could screw the customer for even more money.

OOps, I don't think it quite said that last bit but.... ;-)
