I was suspicious about it before I'd even opened it up. Then I was even more suspicious when I saw that it was version 1.0.1. Then I added a few fonts and discovered to my great surprise that yes, when you add them to Font Book, the font files are removed from wherever they had been. Whatever Font Book is, it isn't a professional-level font management application. Fortunately I'm still in the middle of the upgrade so I have both the G4 and the G5 running side-by-side and I have everything backed up in about ten places, so I was able to reinstall everything that had mysteriously vanished. Getting the fonts to actually work in Quark was another half-hour of trial and error and I'm still not certain what's going on (and am therefore still doing all my design work on the G4 because at least everything works there.)
I used to use ATM Deluxe with OS 9, and had no problems with it. I'll look into Suitcase X1. Many thanks for the advice!
