Are there any advantages, or disadvantages, for that matter when one
installs fonts or da's directly into a program via Font DA mover with
the option key held down during open, versus installing them into a 
system file?

The Sun Server that we have here has over 300 megs of mac stuff, and the
programs each have the fonts installed directly into them....does this
save space? time?  effort?

Either mail or post your response, it might be something that we
are all interested in hearing...

Thanks in advance, 
Scott
