I just upgraded to MainType 4.0 and at the end of installation I pointed to my 'font' folder and MainType "processed" all the fonts ... this will make finding something much easier. From time to time I add new fonts to my font folders (located on C:/fonts) ... how do I reprocess or update my processed fonts?
Many thanks!

Re: Process fonts
I figured it out ... so easy. All I need to do is go to >Tools >Refresh Font Folders
I really, 'really' like MainType 4.0!

Re: Process fonts
It's even easier than that... just hit the refresh button on the main toolbar (or press CTRL+R).

Re: Process fonts
Thanks Leon!
Is there anyway to organize the fonts in my collection ... I have folders a - z, and I would like to 'copy' the dingbats, picture fonts, design fonts into a group. I tried to select the fonts in folder a, but couldn't figure out how to copy them to a new group.
Thanks again

Re: Process fonts
The easiest way is to have MainType create the groups from your folders automatically on first running it, or when adding folders to the Library. Later, you can drag and drop selected fonts to any groups created by MainType or that you create.
