Sorting Fonts by Install Date

Hello,

This may sound so easy but I cannot seem to find a way to find my recently installed fonts.

I'm using a MacPro as an Avid Media Composer workstation. We needed to install several foreign fonts but for some reason, it conflicted with Avid.

I tried but I cannot remember and cannot sort out the fonts by installation date.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

To find a font that is causing a problem you could use Font Book to "Disable" sets of fonts in the "User" category. You can shift-click to choose a range of fonts (like half of them) then right-click to "Disable" the entire selection. The selected fonts get disabled and show up in the list in gray and the word "Off" next to them.

There is no option for sorting by installation date. You can sort by modification date or origination date.
