Suitcase Fusion sounds lovely, but I have no valid requirement for a paid font manager. (Maybe as a mental-health aid, and see if medical insurance would pay for it?)
It is too bad the freeware ones are so limited. I still use The Font Thing (designed in 1999 for Win98!!!) --- it still works in Windows 8, but does not recognize OTF fonts. For those I use freeware Nexus font manager. (which I had some speed-bumps learning to use after more than a decade of The Font Thing). They both have simple methods to create collections, print samples, and load/unload (as opposed to INSTALL) fonts. FontViewOK seems to have its fans also.
Search capability in these free programs seems wonky, maybe you have to pay for better search algorithms.
I mention these freewares for the possible interest of other forum users whose pockets, like mine, only contain lint, and rely on freeware.
