Ok, computerheads - help!!! I moved a bunch of System 9 font files (via USB memory stick) to OS X 10.3.5. The new machine won't recognise them at all - it's given them the icons for generic Unix text files, and FontBook and Photoshop can't see them. I don't think this is a font problem, but something to do with shifting files from 9 to X. Anybody got any suggestions??

Your blood's worth bottling! Thanks! I won't be back in the office until Monday, but if you've got any suggestions I'll certainly try them out then. To me it looks a whole lot like when you move a Mac file to a new machine and it loses its file type, which can be restored using ResEdit - at least, that's what I'd do in System 9! Both fonts and Photoshop files seem to have the same problem (ie files in PSD format - TIFs etc all work fine).

Cheers!
