EXORCIZE YOUR FONTS (continued)
Don't Forget to Flush Font Book doesn’t flush rank fonts out of any caches. That’s when we turn to shareware, or in this case, freeware. After throwing Font Book at corrupt fonts, use FontNuke (free, homepage.mac.com/jpietry/apps/fontnuke) to clear out any cached fonts, which can preempt new versions of removed fonts from ever seeing the light of day. If font problems persist, step up to FontDoctor, ($69.99,
www.morrisonsoftdesign.com), which has a knack for finding font corruption that Font Book misses.
