I removed and deleted every single Arabic, Hebrew and otherwise font from every location on the drive. I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link. Library folder (root, not your user account):
They don't need to go back into the folders they came from. Then you can activate any of those you remove with your font manager the same as any other font. Copy all fonts to another location first. Or, just compare to this list of the installed fonts on my Mac and make yours the same. Section one explains which are the minimum fonts that should be in the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder, and the root /Library/Fonts/ folder. I have a detailed font article you can look over Font Management in OS X. I don't know about you, but I'm neither blind or have very poor vision, so what do I need the Braille fonts on my system for? I can't read any Kanji characters, so why do I need any Asian fonts on my system? Good news is, of the 280 fonts (the files themselves) Yosemite installs, you can remove most of them without affecting how the OS or its apps function. There are tons more foreign fonts in the root Library folder. Many of the foreign fonts are in the System folder, and Font Book won't display those, much less let you remove them.
