I recently upgraded from a 5-year-old MacBook using Snow Leopard to a MacBook Pro using Lion. I also upgraded from MS Office 2004 to MS Office 2011.

On the old MacBook, as on my even-older Cube using OS 9.2 and Office 2001, I used several old Adobe PostScript Type 1 fonts with no problem. Foremost among them were Adobe Garamond and Adobe Jenson. I've dragged the six Garamond fonts, plus its font suitcase to the Fonts folder in the Library folder. Upon seeing some fleeting font installation messages, I thought all was well.

But no luck. The fonts don't appear as options on old or new documents. Any suggestions or solutions?
