Product Description:

FontDoctor has long been the industry standard software tool for font problem diagnosis, repair, organization, and now font archiving and back-up. FontDoctor is a professional software application that will locate and eliminate hard-to-find font problems that wreak havoc on the Macintosh system performance and applications. FontDoctor will scan font folders (on local hard drives or over a network) to locate and repair common font illnesses, including corrupt or damaged fonts, missing Postscript fonts, missing bitmaps, corrupt/damaged fonts, font ID conflicts, extra fonts sizes, mixed fonts types, and lots more.

FontDoctor offers powerful font organization and archiving features that allow FontDoctor to sort and clean-up existing font folders into a neatly organized font library. Now your fonts can be easily organized by font name, family name, alphabetically, or by a whole host of other flexible font organization options. FontDoctor will also print font sample sheets, convert Windows fonts to Macintosh (and vice-versa), and generate font diagnosis and organization reports as needed.

FontDoctor X CommentaryThis Thing Is So Useless - Version: 7.3.1, 7/31/2007 04:09AM PST

I've fired up Font Doctor several times over the last two years in attempts to fix various problem fonts. Each and every time Font Doctor gives the problem font a clean bill of health. Meanwhile Suitcase is reporting it damaged.

I've never dared run it on my entire collection after trying it on a subfolder and reading some of the comments here. I've come the conclusion that Font Doctor is useless.
