It's best to store your fonts in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts so that you separate them from your system fonts. This avoids that you overwrite/remove the wrong fonts (like system fonts) and is also useful if you only want Photoshop to use that that many fonts.

It's also advisable if you use lots of fonts to use a font manager.

That may work. I was unaware that photoshop kept it's fonts seperate from windows fonts, I thought that photoshop just pulled it's font list from windows font list. Very nice BlueFlare Big Wink

What's in the common folder are additional fonts. Photoshop is still adding the system fonts to the list that you see inside the program.

ok i got the extensis suitcase - would it be possible to move all the fonts in my fonts folder to a separate folder for extensis to read while still having the system read all the fonts it needs to?
