I seem to have 67 fonts that have been installed in at least two places:

example
c:\program files\common files\adobe fonts\adobemingstd-light.otf
and
c:\program files\pacesadobe\pdfl\7.0\fonts\adobemingstd-light.otf

another example: courierstd-boldoblique is installed in 4 places -
c:\program files\adobe\adobe acrobat 7.0\designer 7.0\fonts\courierstd-boldoblique

c:\program files\adobe\adobe acrobat 7.0\resource\fonts\courierstd-boldoblique

c:\program files\common files\adobe\fonts\courierstd-boldoblique

c:\program files\common files\adobe\pdfl\7.0\fonts\courierstd-boldoblique

also included are:
euclid
courier
kozgo
lettergothic
lucida bright
etc. etc. for a grand total of 67

Besides taking up space in the hard drive doesn't each entry take up valuable registry resources.

How can I delete the extra entries and combine everything into one entry.

Thanks,

Ben Spector
