writes: of problems with Fontographer copy protection and hard disk
installation.

While it can be copied with CopyIIMac 6.2, the following system will
enable installation of Fontographer on a hard disk without lowering the
allowed "install count", thus enabling disk-backup, reformatting, etc.

When installing it on a hard disk, A dialogue box appears asking if
you wish to install it, etc. At this point, remove the Fontogropher
disk, using a paper clip and replace it with a sector copy (made by any
of a number of simple copy programs).  Then proceed.  The hard disk
installation will take place and the count will be decremented on the
copy.

I will no longer buy copy-protected software.
