    <title>Activation</title>

        <p>
        <app>Font Manager</app>
        allows you to activate and de-activate font families.
        </p>

        <p>
        If you have a large number of fonts installed, font selection dialogs
        and lists in many applications can get very long and become uncomfortable
        to use, disabling fonts you do not use very often or do not need at the
        moment helps keep these at a reasonable size.
        </p>
