depends on the font’s platform and type. The following icons are used:

icon to see the contents of the suitcase. Click with the Option key
depressed to open all the suitcases. Click again with the Option key
down to close them all.
PC (MS Windows) TrueType font collection (TTC extension)

The Source list has two main columns: the font file name and the font

Note: If you see the text “<sfnt>” instead of the file name it means that
this is a ‘sfnt’ resource located inside a Macintosh font suitcase and doesn’t
have its own file name.
