For design purposes or Desktop Publishing, needed fonts can be placed together in a separate folder, so they are easy to pack with the project to hand to a typesetter or printer.

Fonts are an integral part of what makes a better presentation, would that be a keynote, a conference, a book, an ad, a poster, or even a simple memo. We may not always realize it, but the richness of Web 2.00 has accustomed each one of us to a profusion of typographies that the printed material sometimes lacks.
