Font Management on Mac
I know most people use Toast to manage fonts but i was just curious how you guys use Toast. Do you organize your fonts into different groups and only activate certain groups at a time? or do you activate all you fonts all the time?
I wasn't sure if activating all your fonts on a Mac at the same time was bad or not, I know on my PC I just basically had all my fonts in a fonts folder on my hard drive and they would all show up in the programs. Any suggestions/tips would be great. |

I know suitcase is a popular choice, which is also available in PC format to save loading all the fonts at once.
Works on the same principle of creating sets and activating them when needed |

I'd kill for a way to categorize fonts, not just inside one program but in the CS3-programs, my font-list is growing way too long :P
