Reduce Number of Fonts - Fauxre - 01-15-2020
Hi All,
Not sure if I should post here, or in 2.10 forum, but here goes.
I'm new to this forum, bt Ive been using GIMP for family projects for years. Home movie videos, gift certificates, flyers; relatively simple stuff. Nothing professional.
Does anyone know if there is a way to set Gimp such that it only lists the fonts downloaded to the Gimp fonts folders? It's a real pain to scroll pass all of the fonts found in the systems folder that are mixed in with the fonts I've added to the GIMP fonts folder.
My computer tech skills ended with the introduction of the 386 processor(1985ish), so Im a little out of date.
I'm running GIMP Version 2.10.14 on MacOS Mojave 10.14.6.
Any help is appreciated.

There is not a lot you can do. I use linux and a font manager to disable unwanted fonts. That of course is system wide and affects other applications, typically Web browsers. There might be a free / inexpensive Mac font manager.
Otherwise, you can tag fonts with a reference name see: https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-tagging.html
The name is filtered in the Fonts dock (but not the font tool options) This in a Mac Virtual Machine.
