In depth

A closer look at Font Book Helper 1.0

Font Book Helper changes the icon that's used to represent the outline font part of Adobe PostScript Type 1 fonts from Font Book's default gray icon to a red one, visually reminiscent of the red PostScript "A" icon used in OS 9 and prior. This has the effect of breaking up the grayish visual monotony that Font Book introduced, and makes fonts and font types easy to identify even at a quick glance.
