Hi James,

Glad everything worked out. I've had to solve this same problem a couple of times under OS X 10.4 myself. The post here ...

... basically says "you can copy stuff to ~./fonts" to solve the problem. A better solution is just sym linking, which Han-Wen points out later in the thread.

Since I already have a solution that works for me, the question is pure curiosity, but what's better about sym linking? And is that better than telling fontbook to install fonts system-wide, or better than copying fonts to ~/.fonts/ or both?
