Hello to all of you.
I have upgraded today (finally) from AI v8.0.1 - which I will continue to use in the short term - to CS1.
I have a Dual 2mhz G5 with 6GB ram and run Tiger 10.4.7 so I can still use the Classic apps.

There is alot for me to like about CS, but one very annoying aspect is that
font names do not appear in the character palette. The fonts show up in
the Preview mode in both the palette flyout list and the list under Type > Font in the Menu bar. The font family info DOES show up however, and I can select from the choices (regular, bold,italic, etc) for the current font - but after the list goes away I just don't know what the font is anymore, and have to go back to the list. Real annoying to say the least.

All the fonts in the list function properly and can be converted to outlines as needed.
I am not using any font management in the OSX environment yet, but do use Suitcase in the Classic mode.

Any advice out there ?
Thanks in advance for helping me sort this out.

Larry
