Had severe font clashes, and had to remove
fonts from font book . The problem has now
been resolved, but I now need to reload my
fonts, and cannot find them.
HELP!!!

I don't like Font Book and don't use it, but I remember
there is an option to delete fonts from your computer
when deleting them from Font Book... maybe that's what
you've done, and then you need to reinstall them.

I reinstalled the whole OS after similar mistake and never
used Font Book again, so I'm not of much help to you.
Check out these sites for info, good luck

Be careful with fonts and inform yourself. As far as I know
fonts are the nr1 problem on any OS, apart from viruses
in Windows
