- This is only the case if you compressed your files with Font & Sound Valet
- 1.2 or earlier.
-
- The Finder's Font/DA Mover code preflights the FONDs and complains if they're
- compressed. Valet 1.3, which has been out since the Suitcase 1.2.1x days if
- memory serves, only compresses NFNT and FONT data, which is acceptable to the
- System 7 Finder.
