Re: Best way to remove extra Microsoft fonts?

Hi Zack,
yes, you can use Font Book to solve basic font-related problems, and you can
also disable or delete fonts according to your wishes. However, among the
many fonts installed by Office 2004, you do NOT want to temper with the
following ones:

Arial
Batang
Gulim
Hiragino Kaku Gothic Pro W3
Lucida Grande
MS PMincho
MS Gothic
MS Mincho
MS Pgothic
MT Extra
PmingLiu
Simsun
Symbol
Times New Roman
Verdana
Wingding

This list was posted some time ago by a Microsoft employee, so I assume she
knew what she was talking about.
