    How do I install fonts that are different but have the same name?


    I am trying to install some fonts. Some of the fonts have the same name as previously installed fonts but are totally different. I keep getting the "this font is already installed" message. I've tried changing the name but that doesn't work. Any help is greatly appreciated

    :)

    Installing 2 Fonts with the Same Name

    I'm a font geek, and collect a few here and there.

    Recently, I'm finding several fonts with the same name ("Holiday," for example), but very different typefaces from different foundries.

    I can't install a second font with the name Holiday, since there is already one in there, lest I get the font already installed message. Nor can I just change the file name.

    I'll take any suggestions!

    Thanks much!
