Hi rcseggel,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below will explain how to add the fonts you access the most to the Favorites category. The article is for Mountain Lion, but it applies to Mavericks as well. These fonts would be accessible to you from any application. To remove a font from the Favorites, just drag it away from the list and it will disappear.

You can make frequently used fonts easier to find by adding them to the Favorites collection in the Fonts window. If you often use a particular style or color with a given font, you can save the styled font as a favorite, too.
- If the Fonts window isn’t already open, open an app, and then open the Fonts window. In most apps you can open the Fonts window by choosing Format > Font > Show Fonts or Format > Show Fonts.
- Select a font family and a typeface, and then select a font size.
- To select a font color, click the Text Color button and select a color.You can’t save some text effects, such as underline, strikethrough, or shadows as part of a favorite font.
- Choose Add to Favorites from the Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear), or drag the font from the Typeface column to the Favorites collection in the Collection column.When you select the font in your Favorites collection, it automatically appears in the correct color and style.
If you want to see what a font looks like as you adjust settings, open the Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear) in the lower-left corner of the Font panel and choose Show Preview.
Cheers,
- Judy
