Magically - you can use PC fonts on a MAC They will be instantly activated - even with a document open.
Put your fonts for THE JOB YOU ARE WORKING ON Put a folder for "InDesign's Font Folder" in your sidebar *Notable exception: for the period I worked in pre-press, with many, many, agency jobs coming in every day, the ability to activate whole sets of fonts on the fly was a god-send, but this was more an artefact of design agencies' belief that there is something intrinsically clever about finding a sans-serif body copy font that no one else has ever heard of. If I subsequently find I need the font for a job, I move it back.īroad sets of fonts can be created with Finder labels on the rare occasions I require it, fonts can be attached to specific jobs/clients by adding a Spotlight comment. Once a month, I have a quick scroll through my font folder and move anything I haven't used in a couple of months into a separate 'Deactivated Fonts' folder. When a job requires a specific font, I buy it. I've never found a font management utility that didn't impede my workflow to a point that outweighed any supposed benefits.*
