Change from MultiFinder to Finder
---------------------------------
Font/DA Mover 4.1 can remove desk accessories, but can't remove fonts from the startup System file while in MultiFinder. If you aren't using MultiFinder, skip to the "Use Font/DA Mover" section. If you try to remove fonts, a message appears. Click the OK button.
You now have three options to change from MultiFinder to Finder:
* Restart and Press Command Key
Choose Restart from the Special menu and hold down the Command key.
This temporarily disables MultiFinder. Choosing Restart again
enables MultiFinder.
* Restart with a System Floppy Disk
1) Choose Restart from the Special menu.
2) Put a System disk in the main floppy drive right after you hear
the chime.
* Set Startup to Finder Only
1) Choose Set Startup... from the Special menu. A dialog box
appears.
2) Click the Finder radio button (the Finder Only radio button
highlights at the same time).
3) Click the OK button.
4) Choose Restart from the Special menu.
Use Font/DA Mover
-----------------
You are now ready to remove fonts from your System file. If you don't already have Font/DA Mover 4.1 on your hard disk, copy the application to your hard disk now.
Note: If you have older versions of Font/DA Mover on your hard disk, drag them to the Trash and choose Empty Trash from the Special menu. Using an older version can damage your System file!
1) Double-click the Font/DA Mover 4.1 application. (Hold down the
Option key before launching Font/DA Mover 4.1 to display desk
accessories first rather than fonts. The scroll box on the left
then shows the desk accessories currently installed in your System
file. Follow steps 2-4, substituting desk accessories wherever you
see fonts.) The Font/DA Mover screen appears.
The scroll box on the left shows the fonts currently installed in
your System file. The title below the scroll box, "System on
Macintosh HD," indicates the location of the fonts.
2) Select the fonts you want to remove by one of two methods:
* Drag over the list on the left while pressing the mouse button.
* Or you can hold down the Shift key and click each font. You can
select items that aren't next to each other by this method.
Font/DA Mover displays the selected fonts in reverse type (white
letters on a black background).
3) Click the Remove button to remove the selected fonts. A message
appears.
4) Click the OK button. Font/DA Mover removes the fonts, and they no
longer appear in the left window of the screen.
5) To remove desk accessories and fonts during the same session, click
the Font or Desk Accessory radio buttons at the top of the Font/DA
Mover window.
6) When you're finished, click the Quit button to go back to the
desktop (Finder).
7) If you previously chose to Set Startup to Finder Only, repeat the
steps in that section, but click the MultiFinder radio button rather
than the Finder radio button.
