Too many fonts- which ones do I NEED to keep?

Post by momaloy »

Since I am still not able to get 2.011d to work and am getting the "too many fonts" error, I want to move some fonts to a folder. I am hoping that it is as simple as going through Windows Explorer and moving them into their new folder?

I don't want to get too carried away and move something that Windows deems mandatory to its program, so does anyone know how I can tell? I googled it, but didn't find what I needed to know.

Also, could anyone successfully running 2.011d on Vista tell me how many fonts are a "safe" number to have installed?

TIA!!

There is a list of fonts on this website. http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/aboutg ... load_3.htm
It's a good idea to keep the uninstalled fonts, just in case you have a program that needs them.

I just moved my excess fonts into a new folder on my desktop. I can still view them with Font Manager. Will this help Windows as well as SCAL work faster?
