My list of fonts continues to grow and grow. I have about 200 now and will probably get more in the future. Is there anytype of font manager that lets me put my fonts into folders that Photoshop/Flash/Illustrator etc. will recognize? Like, for example, I can have a folder "PixelFonts" which i can open and browse in photoshop. I doubt such a thing exists, but whether or not there is, can you guys/girls give me a recommendation on a good font manager?
Thanks a lot.

Nah....I dont think there is. Are you trying to have it where certain fonts do not show up in flash but will show up in PS?? but I have heard if you are using xp you can create other folders that the font folder will read from but you have to put fonts in there manually. The install new font only works on the factory font folder.

adobe's has a free one, but I've never used it. they have other
products for type managers as well, the deluxe version of the
free one costs $65, whereas their entire FontFolio product is
$1900. You get 2750 fonts and a lot more with that apparently.
Here's the free one:

Deluxe:

FontFolio:

I'm gonna give the free one a shot, as adobe makes hi-quality
products.

yes there is a font program i use it its caled font navigator its really cool because it searches your HD for all the fonts and it lets you preview them before you install so you see i just install the fonts im gonna use because windows gets fuked if you install more than 250 fonts in case you didnt know ;)

I'm not a software distributor, but I'll put it on my server for a
short time to let whoever wants it, to get it.

the app is free, and it works great. Not very large either.
