| System fonts not listed in Font Book
I understand that it is not possible to delete or disable SYSTEM fonts.
I have 27 fonts listed in Hard Drive/System/Library/fonts including these four:
AquaKanaBold, AquaKanReg, Keyboard and Last Resort. However they are not listed in the Fonts Book. In case they are really essential, I have used Pacifist to extract them from the Install CD and have tried to add them to the Font Book - but no go.
Other System fonts ARE listed in the Font Book and also listed in Word 2004 for Mac. I don't wish to delete or disable any of them but I wondered -
1) Although I have experienced no problems with this, is this correct? and
2) What applications use Keyboard and Last Resort?
And if there is a fonts expert out there:
The Apple Article ID 25710 lists nineteen "Essential System Software fonts" and mentions the specific applications that use two of the fonts - Terminal needs Monaco and Address Book requires Helvetica to work. But I would be interested to know what applcations use the other seventeen.
