A while back, I posted a message asking how to change the annoying family
names of the Adobe Postscript NFNT's.  Thanks to everyone who responded that
I should use Font Harmony/NFNT 1.0 BUT let me clarify...

What I want to do is change the NFNT family name for an already merged family.
For instance, in the UNIVERS font family, there are several NFNT families,
Univers 55, L Univers 45 Light, C Univers Condensed, etc.  Each one of these
fonts is considered its own "NFNT" with its own substyles (ie bold, italic,
etc.). 

My question ishow do I change L Univers 45 Light to just "Univers Light"?
I've tried sing ResEdit to change the NFNT name, and it seems to work, BUT
it also seems to leave a copy of the "old" name available so BOTH the 
original name AND the new name appear in the font menus...

Any suggestions?
