I have a Type 1 font in my machine with two names having same functionality. Is there any way to identify the duplicate font identification of same font by running a preflight or any script.

How to identify if the font having more than one occurance in a machine.

It would be better to suggest the font name with different name for same font.

Have you tried?

Also, can you retire ALL Type 1 PostScript fonts and replace them with OpenType fonts? That should have been done 17 years ago!
