Odd message in Font Book...
« on: November 26, 2021, 07:37:18 PM »
When I open Font Book there is a message in yellow "Multiple copies of this font are installed." That's the best I can get after several openings and closings of Font Book as the message flashes by so fast it's hard to read!

I have preferences set to Default Install Location: User and the box for "Resolve duplicates by moving files to the trash" checked.
I also selected ALL the fonts and checked for duplicates... there were none found... then I chose to validate all the fonts... no problems found except for 2 minor problems with one font. I disabled that one otherwise no problems.
Shut down Font Book... restarted it and there's the same message flashing by...  :wallbash: Happens even when there is no font selected.

Does anyone have any idea what the thing means?

Have not figured this one out yet however I haven't had any "font" troubles in documents, pdf's, texts, notes etc. Either in existing ones or ones that I write new or edit etc. so...  :dntknw:
