I'm looking for a font manager that works without the constant lock-up in
Vista? Does anyone know of any that are out yet?

Thanks in advance

Perhaps if you explained you lock up because Font in the Control Panel dos
not cause it I would doubt.

You don't need a font manager in Vista (or even XP), you can install
literally 10,000 fonts and it WILL NOT affect system performance at all. It
is a myth that having too many fonts installed will cause slow down your
system in XP or Vista. (With Win9x, and earlier versions of NT, it could
cause performance problems, but not on XP or Vista.)

I do a lot of graphics work, and it is far easier to just have all my fonts
installed all the time, and yes I do have over 6,000 fonts installed, and no
it does not slow down boot up times, or any other part of the OS.

Vista and XP are not like OS X where a Font Manager is needed, so this is
something that is hard to break OS X transitioning Graphic Arts of when
moving to Windows.

So install all your fonts, and don't worry about using a Font Manager.
