The purchase price on RoboFont is pretty steep, but really, the software is aimed at people who are drawing and editing their own fonts. I recently had to do exactly what you're asking with my copy of Gotham which was installing as individual files and not as a family. It also does what you're looking for: allows you to open individual files and edit their font info and then resave in whatever format you need.
RoboFont is a great software (mac only) for font editing on so many levels. If someone wants to outline steps in FontLab or Fontographer, I'm all ears. If there's a paid app to do this, I'm fine with that. I am not absolutely looking for freeware. Running Mac OS 10.7, but can boot to 10.6 or 10.8 if needed. How do I do this with the tool suggested, specific steps please? Are there any basic smaller apps to simply edit the font info without editing character and other tables? I don't want to edit the actual font data specifically, merely the titles and naming structure I believe. I know there are a couple of high-end apps (Fontographer, FontLab). What tool on the Macintosh can combine these faces so they are all listed under the family name? As in the figure B, above.
The problem I have is each face is listed separately in various applications (Photoshop, Indesign, etc.) Rather than simply one item with a submenu for faces. These are decent quality fonts with, on average, 8–15 different faces for the family. I've got a few fonts I've purchased over the past few years.
