Deleting Fonts<br />
You can delete fonts <strong>for</strong> any reason—whether they’re outdated, corrupt, orphans, unused, unlicensed, etc.<br />
Be<strong>for</strong>e deleting fonts, be sure that you no longer need the font in the library, and that you have a backup copy if<br />
you ever expect to use the font again.<br />
When deleting fonts, it’s important to understand how fonts are removed. Fonts are typically only removed from<br />
the location that you have selected in the Libraries window. This means that if you have a Set selected and<br />
delete a font, it is only removed from that set, not from the library.<br />
If you have a library selected and delete a font, it is removed from that library. Typically, you will only have one<br />
library in <strong>Suitcase</strong> <strong>Fusion</strong>, so deleting it from the library removes the font entirely. If you have more than one<br />
library and a font resides in both libraries, you will need to remove the font from both libraries to entirely remove<br />
it.<br />
Understanding Font Deletion<br />
The consequences of deleting fonts in multiple libraries, fonts in a single library, and sets are different:<br />
• If you delete a font that belongs to multiple libraries, it is only deleted from the current library.<br />
• If you delete a font that is exclusive to the current library, it is deleted from <strong>Suitcase</strong> <strong>Fusion</strong> entirely.<br />
• Deleting a set removes the set (and any subsets) but does not remove the fonts themselves from the<br />
library.<br />
Deleting Fonts from a Library<br />
Removing a font from one library does not remove it from all libraries. If you have the same font in another<br />
library, it will remain until removed.<br />
To delete fonts from a library:<br />
1. Launch <strong>Suitcase</strong> <strong>Fusion</strong> and select a library.<br />
2. Select the fonts, families, or sets you want to delete.<br />
3. Choose Edit > Delete Font(s), or press Command-Delete.<br />
4. When the alert asks you to confirm the deletion, click Remove.<br />
Collecting Fonts<br />
You can collect fonts to create copies of fonts that reside in the Font Vault. Usually, you collect fonts so you can<br />
supply them to an output provider. You have three options <strong>for</strong> collecting fonts:<br />
• Dragging and dropping selected fonts to the desktop, or any other folder or directory location.<br />
• Using the File > Collect Fonts <strong>for</strong> Output command in <strong>Suitcase</strong> <strong>Fusion</strong> 3 to collect selected fonts.<br />
• Collecting fonts <strong>for</strong> output directly from graphic design applications using the auto-activation plug-ins.<br />
Collecting with Drag and Drop<br />
You can collect select fonts and drag them out of <strong>Suitcase</strong> <strong>Fusion</strong>.<br />
To collect fonts:<br />
1. Launch <strong>Suitcase</strong> <strong>Fusion</strong> 3 and select a library.<br />
2. Select any sets, families, or individual fonts you want to collect.<br />
3. Drag your selection to the desktop or any media such as a Flash drive.<br />
A copy of all the fonts is placed in a folder called Collected Fonts in the specified location.<br />
NOTE<br />
When collecting <strong>for</strong> output, if a font was added to <strong>Suitcase</strong> <strong>Fusion</strong> 3 in-place, the entire font file, and all faces<br />
included in that file are collected. So, even if you only have the italic face of a font selected, if the font file also<br />
contains other faces, they are also collected. For fonts that were added to the Font Vault, only the specific face<br />
selected is collected.<br />
