System 7: Installing Adobe Font Library


This article gives instructions for installing the Adobe Font Library on a
Macintosh running System 7.


*  To install bitmap (screen) fonts, simply drag the font suitcase to the
  System Folder icon and System 7 will automatically install them in the
  System file.  System 7 does not require Font/DA Mover to install bitmap
  fonts.

*  To install outline (printer) fonts, simply drag the font icons (not the
  folder containing them) to the System Folder.  System 7 will
  automatically install them in the Extensions Folder.

NOTE: If you are using a version of Adobe Type Manager prior to 2.03, you
must move outline fonts from the Extensions Folder to the System Folder to
work properly. If you are using 2.03 or later, ATM should work properly
with outline fonts inside the Extensions folder - but make sure to
completely remove older versions of ATM before installing the updated
version.
