I have tried both Suitcase 10 and FontAgent X and both have very strange 
effects in Cocoa applications, specifically TextEdit. I work in graphics 
and Type 1 fonts are a way of life. Adding in just a sampling of these 
fonts creates havoc with the Font Panel. Freehand and Illustrator do 
somewhat better, but fonts appear more than once in the font list and 
one won't work because the system can't locate the printer font file 
(outline file) while the other (smae name) will. Mac OS's from 6 - 9 all 
handled this situation relatively simply, I'm at a loss in OS X and 
haven't been able to find much information about OS X and font 
compatibility. I run X all the time now (Classic also for Quark and 
those fonts activated from Suitcase in Classic work fine). When I add 
fonts manually, using FontAgent X or Suitcase then the problems begin. 
It takes 20 seconds just for the Font Panel to appear (spinning disc).

Does anyone have any resource links or first hand info on this situation?

Thanks,
Bob
