viewing fonts

Can anyone tell me the name of the small application that peeks into font folders for the mac G4-G5 and views both the printer and screen fonts like you would view them on a G3? Thanks.

It's called Font/DA Mover. I have it, but I've never been able to get it to work right.

Yes, like OS9. We could view them on our old mac but we just want something quick to use on our g5s when running into font issues. I will check out Font/DA Mover and fontdoctor.

Amazingly FontDA still works on OS X. This will allow to move fonts in and out the suitcase.

Font Doctor can do this and much more. If I remember correctly Font Doctor is bunled with suitcase but is a seperate install
