Posted on December 23, 2007(See what I did there, it’s a LOLcats reference in the title)
A) Font Book sucks. Not sure if it’s always sucked, as I haven’t used it much, or if it just sucks under Leopard. I’ve acquired a lot of fonts over the years, and a lot of them are not so good. So I thought I’d whittle down the collection a bit. However, if I remove a font/collection using Font Book’s command, a lot of them reappear after a minute or two. After some fiddling, I’ve worked it down to having to hit cmd+R to Reveal the font in Finder, cmd+delete to delete from Finder, cmd+w to close the Finder window, and then switching back to Font Book where the font disappears after a second. Not nearly as efficient as hitting “delete”, but it gets the job done.
B) Font preview in Finder rules. Not only can you preview fonts in Quick Look, which is nice, but the font is also represented by its icon in Finder. It even previews well in a full-size Coverflow-view Finder window. That is the sex
