I know it's possible to install a font in an application file, so it's accessible only from within that application. Can you install a font in a single document? More importantly, once it's there (I'm sure it's possible to get ResEdit or Font/DA Mover to install it) can you use it? -- Mark H.

The application for the document would have to known to look for the font in that particular document. No application I know of currently makes this check. Even if the document's resource fork is opened by the application (MPW, for example), the Font menu is probably built by that point, making the selection of the Font impossible.
