    Photoshop 6 - loading fonts

    I'm testing some fonts on Photoshop and everytime I need to close my work and restart Photoshop so the new fonts are loaded and appear on the drop-down list. Is it possible to load these new fonts without restarting it? I'm almost sure there is a way... I think in the past I didn't need to restart Photoshop.


    Trust the "WOW" effect.

              If you have added any new fonts to your system, to update Photoshop without having to restart, simply hold the Shift key and click the type tool.
