51. A system for managing active fonts on a computer system, comprising: an input for receiving input data requesting activation of a first font for rendering a first portion of an electronic document and a second font for rendering a second portion of the electronic document; and a processor system programmed and adapted to: (a) determine that the first font and the second font do not exist in a font management vault, (b) upon determining that the first font does not exist in the font management vault: (i) identify the first font in a first multi-font suitcase file of a first plurality of multi-font suitcase files, each multi-font suitcase file of the first plurality including a similarly named version of the first font, (ii) separate the first font from the first multi-font suitcase file, and (iii) save the separated first font in the font management vault, and (c) upon determining that the second font does not exist in the font management vault: (i) identify the second font in a second multi-font suitcase file, (ii) separate the second font from the second multi-font suitcase file, and (iii) save the separated second font in the font management vault.
