It's often said that the number of fonts you have loaded on your system the slower Corel will be. I haven't had much of a need to reduce my number of fonts as I either haven't experienced any lag or I just have gotten used to the speed at which the software runs. We usually download fonts onto our network so each designer has access to them as needed. I've always just navigate to the font, right click choose install. Any other method doesn't make sense to me. "Don't actually load the fonts" . So when I'm designing I can't experiment with what fonts look best? How would you use a font without it being installed first?
Well if memory serves you're running Windows 7 Pro with 32 GB of RAM and Draw X7, so my discussion will focus there. X8 and forward requires different discussions.
When I was there I used FontNavigator to look for fonts that I Iiked and installed them. Right click the server archive file and install. I would clean up fonts 2 or 3 times a year from Windows. With 32 YB of RAM 1,200 or more fonts won't hurt.
Yeah, I found a video that covers the new way of handling fonts within Corel without having them in the system directory. We're all dinosaurs here and haven't took the plunge yet. I really don't think we need to worry about it at this point.
BTW most of the videos I've watched on the Corel site come up quite a bit short in terms of actually working.
