So far I've been very pleased with Font/DA Juggler Plus and the sound
and FKey utilities that come with it.  The manual states "Font/DA Juggler 
Plus allows you to select...resource files...and makes their contents 
available system-wide as if they had been copied to the System File."  
The utility does exactly that, with one exception:

When using Word 3.0x, if you select Bold, Italic, etc., for a Postscript 
font, the program automatically uses the appropriate screen font, if it 
can locate it.  (This makes editing much easier, and improves character 
spacing for printing.)  Using Font/DA Juggler this is no longer the case; 
even though the screen fonts for Bold, Italic etc. are in "open" files, 
and appear in Word's Character Format (and Font) menus, the program 
resorts to QuickDraw's oblique on screen.  Of course, one can specifi-
cally change the _font_ to "BI Palatino Bold Italic," but at the expense 
of more keystrokes and inconvenient editing.

I've tried placing the "plain" and "other" (B, I, BI) screen fonts of 
each family together in one font file, and installing the "other" fonts 
in the System.  It seems that the "other" fonts are correctly recognized 
only when BOTH they and the "plain" fonts are installed in the System 
File proper. Can anyone explain this?  How can Word 'see' the fonts to 
place them in the menus, but not to use them on the screen?   Does the 
same thing happen with, say, Suitcase?  As always, thanks in advance!
