First, let it be understood that I am using and referring to the RELEASE
version of MultiFinder here - 6.0/4.2.  It is out, I have it, you will soon
have it available too - just lean on your dealer.



I'll address this LIFO. . . .

SuitCase does indeed not let you open additional font/da files beyond those
opened at startup (around 30 or so files for me).


Font/Da Mover works just fine, thank you very much - so long as you use
version 3.6 which comes with the release version of MultiFinder.

A highly satisfied,

cheeser
