It used to be a saying that you didnt load too many fonts in your fonts folder as it would lag the system. Dont know if THATS still true, but I dont think you want to fill it with some huge bundle of 10,000 fonts from a disk...

Oh, ah, hmmm... so maybe gin & juice + 65000fonts.torrent don't mix after all.
My memory is hazy, but I see now that there are 9,197 fonts currently in the folder.
Hmmm...

Hi Nick, well that would seem to be the problem.... ;)
Pick something like your favorite 1000 of those and get rid of the rest and that should probably zip things back up again.
Otherwise I guess that you will probably see this delay at odd times in a variety of apps, in some it may be when you go to edit a text document that lets you pick different fonts in it like a word processor.

Ok Michael. I was trying to rebuild the font library I had had previously. But, I got side tracked and then forgot to get rid of the ones I dont need. Oops! I will do that soon and give you the result.

MoI is back to normal with default fonts. Thanks for your help, Michael. I guess that problem/solution can go in your troubleshooting guide. :-)

Hi Nick, that's great that it is back to normal, the dump analysis paid off!
Yes, I will have to add that to my troubleshooting checklist: Have you recently been drinking and handling fonts? :)

If you like your fonts you can always use a font manager, there are a few good freeware/open source ones out there.
Cheers
