- The Fonts directory can only hold 128 entries. But an entry can be a
- suitcase, and that suitcase can contain a lot of files. So, in reality,
- there's virtually no limit. Just combine fonts in those suitcases, and
- stay below 128 suitcases, and you'll be in good shape.
-
- You can also move suitcases in and out of the Fonts directory without
- restarting the system. You should avoid, however, changing the contents
- of the font directory if multi-font applications are active.
