[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Renumbering fonts

JTangney@cup.portal.com (John Dominic Tangney) (12/15/88)

Help! I have a huge number of fonts (about 300 FAMILIES) on a Mac II. Using
Suitcase II. There is some conflict in the Font IDs -- one of the fonts in
a "suitcase" (Font/DA mover document) which suitcase has open, conflicts with
another, possibly one in the system file. Suitcase comes with a utility to rer
all the fonts thus avoiding font ID conflicts. Unfortunately, most documents
have the fonts referenced by font id, not name. Renumbering my fonts will 
result in many documents (hundreds, thousands) being unintentionally changed.
I need a utility which will detect the numbering conflicts, or at least will
list the font ids of fonts in the system *and* the "suitcases". ResEdit will 
do this, but with many hundreds of fonts, it would take weeks...

Any suggestions for such a utility?

Please *please* help asap.
