Font Cache Issues
If your fonts occasionally appear garbled or you are seeing other strange behavior with your fonts, you may be seeing a problems with the Mac OS X font cache.
To workaround this issue:
Remove the font cache files com.apple.ATS.System.fcache, com.apple.ATSServer.FODB_System and fontTablesAnnex that are found in
/System/Library/Caches. You will need to enter an Administrator password in order to do this.
Remove the folder com.apple.ATS from
/Library/Caches.
Remove the file com.apple.ATS.plist from
/Users/[name]/Library/Preferences.
Restart your Mac.

My error the instructions from extensis should be:
Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther)

/Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS
/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS.System.fcache
/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.ATSServer.FODB_System
/System/Library/Caches/fontTablesAnnex

AppleJack clears all files from Cache folders in all domains, and will also remove all user specific cache files if you choose to do so during a manual run.
AppleJack does NOT do the following: "3. Remove the file com.apple.ATS.plist from
/Users/[name]/Library/Preferences." as AppleJack does not remove preferences files unless they have been found to be corrupt.
AppleJack is not compatible with Leopard.
