Fonts 'JUST' for PS ?

[xray]

Hi all.
I heard recently from a friend that you should be able to install Fonts 'JUST' in photoshop/illustrator without installing them into your (c:\windows\fonts) directory.

Is this possible?
This would speed my machine up and allow me to have lots more fonts available just for my graphics package.

Any help or advice appreciated.

Thanks

it is possible.. but i have not done it for a very long time..

i know you can just install onto a folder somewhere in your adobe programs.. but i cant remember and cant find it at the moment..

i'll try looking again..

xray, Another thing you may want to consider is purchasing a font manager.

Great link, I'm going to use that tip myself! My system is sluggy from the fonts I do have in it.

Any suggestions for Font managers? Not looking to spend a fortune on it but something resonable, free is always good too!

I got an answer for that too

It's free and yes it doesn't do all the things as the paid version but i really like this program and use it all the time for looking at new fonts and/ or installing them.

Cool free software man,
does exactly what it says and i bet as well as adobe's own font manager!

Cheers
