Can anyone explain to me why within one file of fonts, Font/DA Mover 3.X
and Fontastic 2.3 occasionally present the same font with different names?
For example, Font/DA lists a font as Palatino 12 and Fontastic lists the same
font as Moscow 12.  Zapf Chancery 18 & 36 are represented as Wartburg 18 & 36
respectively in Fontastic.

Also in MacDraw or MacPaint, my font menu lists the fonts Avante Garde, Bookman
N Helvetica Narrow, New Century Schlbk and others that neither Font/DA or
Fontastic identify as being in my system (3.1.1) file.

I am using a Mac+ with Finder 5.2 and System 3.1.1.  

Anyone got any ideas?  Any help would be appreciated.
