A.   ATM.INI parameters

1.   Disk Contents
The following files are found on your ATM disk(s):
ATM16.DLL            Program file for Windows Standard mode
ATM32.DLL            Program file for Windows 386 Enhanced mode
ATMSYS.DRV           ATM System driver
ATMCNTRL.EXE         ATM Control Panel
INSTALL.EXE          ATM Installer
INSTALL.CNF          ATM Installation configuration file
PROGDISK (FONTDISK)  Disk ID file
README.TXT           This file
ATM.CNF              Configuration file (may not be present on 
                     upgrade disks)
FONTINST.TXT         Font installation instructions for Adobe
                     Font Foundry, LaserTools PrimeType and IBM 
                     OS/2 Windows Compatibility Box (present on
                     special ATM upgrade disk)

Your disk(s) may also contain a PSFONTS directory and a PCLFONTS 
directory.  The PSFONTS directory contains PostScript Font 
Outline (PFB) files and Printer Font Metric (PFM) files.  The 
PCLFONTS directory contains PCL bitmapped font files which have 
filename extensions of either SFP or SFL.  The PCLFONTS directory 
also contains Printer Font Metric (PFM) files.  


2.   Installation Requirements

To install ATM, you need a C:\ drive and sufficient disk space 
for the ATM software and fonts.  The amount of disk space you 
need depends on the number of fonts included with your ATM 
package.  The standard retail ATM package requires about 1.2 
megabytes of free disk space.  The default directory for the 
PostScript fonts is c:\psfonts.  These font files can be placed 
anywhere on your local hard drive and do not necessarily need to 
be located on the c: drive.


3.   What's new in version 2.5?

The three new features of version 2.5 are soft fonts on-the-fly 
for Windows 3.1 printer drivers, adding and removing fonts 
without restarting Windows and improved PostScript soft font 
management.  The following section outlines these changes.

*   When running Windows 3.1, ATM 2.5 will print soft fonts on-
    the-fly for printers whose drivers support soft font
    creation.  These printers include HP LaserJet and IBM Lexmark
    printers.  Although some printers may have the capability to 
    handle downloaded printer soft fonts, this feature is 
    dependent on the capability of the Windows printer driver.  
    To verify if a Windows 3.1 printer driver is capable of 
    creating soft fonts, check the Printer Setup Options dialog 
    box from the Windows Printer Control Panel.  If you do not 
    see the option "Print TrueType as Graphics" the driver most 
    likely cannot create printer soft fonts on-the-fly.

*   ATM 2.5 now adds and removes fonts without having to restart 
    Windows.  Some applications, such as Windows Write and Lotus 
    1-2-3 for Windows, update their available font lists 
    immediately, while others, such as Lotus AmiPro 3.0 and Aldus 
    PageMaker 4.0, require you to reselect your current printer 
    to display a change in the font menu.  A few applications, 
    such as Adobe Illustrator 4.0 and QuattroPro for Windows 1.0, 
    derive their font menus from the list of fonts available upon 
    launching.  You must relaunch these applications for font 
    changes to take effect.

*   When you add or remove fonts using the ATM 2.5 Control Panel,
    the PostScript soft font entries in the WIN.INI are 
    automatically updated.  If you change printer ports, however, 
    Windows will not transfer the font entries from printer port 
    to printer port.  You must reinstall your fonts so that the 
    font entries will be written to the newly selected port.  ATM 
    version 2.5 now removes the PostScript soft font entries when 
    you remove a font a using the ATM Control Panel. 


A number of additional changes have been made in version 2.5:

*   ATM will defer to resident and cartridge DeskJet fonts when 
    using the Windows 3.1 DeskJet driver which works in 
    conjunction with the Universal Printer driver.  
*   ATM will no longer disable application printing when using 
    the Windows 3.1 Generic Text driver (TTY.DRV).  This driver 
    only supports its internal font.
*   Rotated text in graphics will display correctly in 
    Lotus 1-2-3 for Windows.
*   ATM text in Lotus Freelance will print correctly when any 
    Windows 3.1 PCL printer driver is configured at lower print 
    resolutions.
*   ATM will print to PCL printers when using Aldus IntelliDraw.
*   The ATM 2.5 Installer will install ATM properly if MoreFonts
    is present on the system.


4.   ATM.INI

ATM's initialization file, ATM.INI, is created during 
installation.  It contains a list of fonts installed in ATM and 
other ATM program-related settings.  For more technical 
information, see Appendix A at the end of this file.


5.   ATM Control Panel

There is no longer a pre-defined limit to the number of fonts you 
can install with the ATM Control Panel.  Windows does, however, 
limit initialization files (including the ATM.INI and the 
WIN.INI) to a size of 64K.  If this limit is reached, Windows 
cannot open, read, or write properly to these INI files.

For Windows 3.0 and 3.0a, Microsoft recommends keeping 
initialization files smaller than 32k in size.  Following this 
recommendation, the maximum number of fonts that can be listed in 
ATM.INI for Windows 3.0 or 3.0a is around 450 fonts.  For Windows 
3.1, the only limit is the 64K maximum file size, which is large 
enough for about 900 fonts.  Many applications limit the number 
of fonts that can be displayed in their font menus.  Although you 
may see over 500 fonts in the ATM Control Panel, an application 
may be able to show only 200 fonts.  If this problem occurs, try 
reducing the number of fonts you have installed.

The more fonts you add with ATM, the longer it takes Windows to 
load.  The exact time depends on the type of processor you have 
and your system configuration.  If you feel that Windows is 
taking too long to start, you might want to free up more memory 
available to Windows and/or reduce the total number of fonts 
installed to a set of fonts you frequently use.


6.   PostScript Soft Font Limits for Windows 3.0 and 3.0a

For Windows 3.1, there is no longer a 150 font limit on the 
number of soft-font entries you can have for a PostScript 
printer.  For Windows 3.0 and 3.0a, however, the maximum number 
of soft-font entries per PostScript printer WIN.INI entry is 
approximately 150.  The exact number depends on your particular 
system configuration.  If you receive spurious printer-related 
error messages when starting Windows or switching to a PostScript 
printer, check the number of soft fonts you have installed in the 
PostScript printer section in the WIN.INI.  You might have to 
remove soft fonts you don't normally use through the ATM Control 
Panel to correct the printing problem.

If you manually remove soft-font entries from the PostScript 
printer section of the WIN.INI file, remember to adjust the line 
"softfonts=nn" to show the new total number of soft-font entries.  
ATM will automatically renumber your soft fonts when you remove 
them using the ATM Control Panel, but cannot correct misnumbered 
font entries.

The Microsoft Windows 3.1 PostScript driver will allow you to 
synthesize an italic style of an PostScript font even if the true 
italic outline font is not present on this system.  Windows, 
however, cannot provide the PostScript driver with the correct 
metrics for a synthesized italic face and the font will be 
displayed with expanded character spacing.  A PostScript printer 
will print only the regular style if a synthesized italic face is 
requested. 


7.   Use Pre-built or Resident Fonts

When you select the Use Pre-built or Resident Fonts check box, 
ATM will let the PCL printer driver use these fonts at print time 
instead of printing the fonts on its own.  Although ATM does not 
require restarting Windows when changing the Use Pre-built or 
Resident Fonts option, it may be necessary to quit and restart 
applications for this option to take effect.  If you are printing 
under Windows 3.1 to printers that support soft fonts on-the-fly, 
you may want to turn this option off, since it is actually more 
efficient to have the printer driver create the font rather than 
letting it download the prebuilt font.  To see if you have any 
pre-built fonts installed for your PCL printer, check the Fonts 
dialog box in the Windows Printer Control Panel Setup menu.

You may find that when this option is selected, resident or soft 
fonts will not be masked by your printer if a graphic image is 
placed on top of the text.  As an example, open an application 
that allows you to draw images over text, select the font 
Courier, and draw a gray box on top of it.  The font is covered 
by the gray box on the screen.  But with the Use Pre-built or 
Resident Fonts option selected, your printer will print the text 
on top of the gray box.  (This type of behavior also occurs when 
you turn ATM off.)  When you clear the Use Pre-built or Resident 
Fonts check box, your text and graphic images will print as 
displayed on-screen.  If you are printing ATM fonts as soft 
fonts, you may have to use the "Print ATM fonts as graphics" 
option to have graphic objects and text to print together 
correctly.


8.   Print ATM Fonts as Graphics

To configure ATM to print as graphics rather than as soft fonts, 
check the option "Print ATM fonts as graphics" in the ATM Control 
Panel.  The change between soft font mode and graphics mode takes 
effect immediately in most applications.  In a few applications, 
such as Word for Windows 2.0, you must first reselect your 
printer for a ATM print mode change to take effect.  If you 
configure your printer driver to print TrueType fonts as 
graphics, ATM will always print as graphics regardless of your 
configuration in the ATM Control Panel.  Some applications, such 
as CorelDraw 3.0, always print text as graphics.  This feature of 
printing ATM text as soft fonts is only available under Windows 
3.1x.


9.   Install as Autodownload fonts for the PostScript driver

The Microsoft PostScript driver uses the section [PostScript, 
portname] in the WIN.INI file to determine the available 
installed soft fonts.  In the following example the PostScript 
printer is configured for the printer port LPT1.

[PostScript, LPT1]
softfonts=2
softfont1=c:\psfonts\pfm\tkrg______.pfm;c:\psfonts\tkrg____.pfb
softfont2=c:\psfonts\pfm\tkb_______.pfm;c:\psfonts\tkb_____.pfb

Each soft font entry is made up of two parts: the first part 
indicates the path to the printer character metrics file (PFM) 
and the second part defines the path to the font outline file 
(PFB) for every font.  The PFM file is necessary for all fonts 
whose character metrics are not hard-coded in the PostScript 
driver.  The PFB entry is only needed when you want the driver to 
download the font outline with every print job.  To configure the 
Microsoft PostScript driver to automatically download soft fonts 
at print time install the font with the option "Install as 
autodownload fonts for the PostScript driver" checked.  When this 
option is checked, ATM will add the PFM and PFB entries for all 
fonts.  This feature is helpful if your PostScript printer does 
not contain the standard Base35 fonts.  The Base35 fonts: 
AvantGarde, Bookman, Courier, Helvetica, Helvetica Narrow, 
NewCenturySchoolbook, Palatino, Symbol, Times, ZapfChancery and 
ZapfDingbats, are resident in most newer PostScript printers.  

If you are adding fonts to ATM that are already resident on the 
printer, you can uncheck this option to instruct the printer 
driver not to send the font outline to the printer at print time.  
With this option unchecked ATM adds only the PFM entries for the 
non-Base35 fonts.  Neither the PFM entry nor the PFB entry is 
added to the WIN.INI for the Base35 soft fonts when this option 
is unchecked.  The soft font entries for these fonts do not need 
to present in the WIN.INI because the font metrics are hard-coded 
in the driver.  If present, they will be ignored by the 
PostScript driver at print time.  In other words, the PostScript 
driver will not download the outlines of these fonts if it sees 
from the printer driver configuration in the Windows Printer 
Control Panel that the fonts are already present on the printer.   
The only exception is the font Bookman.  If the Bookman PFB entry 
is present in the WIN.INI, the driver will download the outline 
file at print time.  To correct this problem and to force the 
driver to use the Bookman font internal in the printer, re-add 
the four faces of Bookman with the option "Install as 
autodownload fonts for the PostScript driver" unchecked


10.  ATM and Printing

ATM uses PostScript outline fonts to produce a smooth graphic 
display of your fonts on-screen.  The fonts available for use 
depend on the printer you have selected in your application.  The 
fonts available for non-PostScript printers are the internal 
printer fonts, the Windows internal bitmapped fonts, installed 
TrueType fonts and the fonts listed in the ATM Control Panel. 

For PostScript printers, the fonts available are the fonts 
resident in the printer, installed TrueType fonts and the 
PostScript soft-font entries listed in the printer's section in 
the WIN.INI file.  When printing to a PostScript printer, ATM 
does not have to be active because it does not have to rasterize 
any fonts.  Windows and the PostScript driver download outline 
fonts to your PostScript printer.

Print Resolution

For the highest print quality, Adobe recommends you set your 
printer and printer driver to the highest print resolution.  
Certain PCL printer drivers do not properly set the print 
resolution.  They may appear to be set at 300 dpi resolution in 
the Windows Printer Control Panel even though they are set to a 
lower resolution.  Some applications fail to print correctly when 
your PCL printer resolution is not set to 300 dpi.  Excel 3.0a, 
for example, prints blank cells instead of ATM fonts when 
printing ATM fonts as graphics and your PCL printer is not set to 
300 dpi.  If you suspect your PCL printer driver is not set to 
300 dpi, set the resolution to 75 dpi, save this option, and then 
set the resolution back to 300 dpi.  When your printer resolution 
is set to 300 dpi, the line "prtresfac=0" appears in the PCL 
printer entry in the WIN.INI file.

Colored Text

ATM will generate a graphic image of colored text regardless of 
ATM print mode (soft font or graphics mode).  To force ATM to 
generate black/white soft fonts to monochrome printers and color 
soft fonts to printers such as the HP PaintJet 300xl, simply add 
a new section in your ATM.INI called [Colors] and insert the line 
PrintColorGraphics=Off.  Please refer to Appendix A for more 
details.


11.  Printer and Video Drivers

For the highest font rasterization quality, Adobe recommends you 
use the latest Windows printer and video drivers.  If you are 
using the Microsoft Windows 3.1 DeskJet driver version 1.2, make 
sure to use the Universal Printer driver dated 06/29/92. 


12.  Installing fonts from the Adobe PlusPack and Adobe 
     PostScript and Type Cartridges

To install the fonts from the Adobe PlusPack and Adobe PostScript 
and Type cartridges, copy all files to a temporary directory on 
your hard disk and add the fonts using the ATM Control Panel.  
Because these fonts are already resident on your printer, uncheck 
the "Install as autodownload fonts for the PostScript driver" 
option and add all of the fonts from the temporary directory to 
your standard fonts directory.  After the fonts have been 
successfully installed into ATM and their files are in located in 
their proper directories, you can delete the files from the 
temporary directory.


13.  Installing ATM in the IBM OS/2 Windows Compatibility Box

Before installing ATM version 2.5 over an existing version of ATM 
in the IBM OS/2 Windows Compatibility box, you must first edit 
the Boot section of your Windows SYSTEM.INI file.  Replace the 
lines SYSTEM.DRV=ATMSYS.DRV and ATM.SYSTEM.DRV=SYSTEM.DRV with 
the line SYSTEM.DRV = SYSTEM.DRV, launch Windows and install ATM 
as instructed in the manual.


14.  Application Notes

When you add or remove a font while an application is active, the 
font menus are not always updated automatically.  The following 
applications will update their font menus when the current 
printer driver is reselected: AmiPro 3.0, Freehand 3.0, Freelance 
1.0, PageMaker 4.0, Ventura Publisher for Windows and WordPerfect 
for Windows 5.1.


Adobe Illustrator 4.0 

If you have Illustrator 4.0 and add or remove a font, you must 
restart Windows for font changes to take effect in Illustrator.  
If you have a later version of Illustrator, make sure the 
application is closed before adding or removing fonts.  You will 
see the font change the next time you launch Illustrator.  The 
two enumerator files PSENUM.DLL and RUN_ENUM.EXE, which register 
ATM font changes, are located in the Windows system directory.  
In order for font changes to take effect immediately after 
restarting Illustrator, you need the latest versions of these 
files.  If your enumerator files are dated 7/17/92 or earlier, 
you can receive the updates to these files free of charge by 
contacting Customer Support at (415) 961-4992.  These files 
can also be downloaded from the Adobe CompuServe forum.  


CorelDraw!

CorelDraw! 3.0 now supports ATM fonts.  Adobe strongly recommends 
obtaining the maintenance release version 3.0b.  You must restart 
CorelDraw! for font changes to take effect.  CorelDraw! version 
2.0 does not support ATM fonts.  


Designer 3.1 and Charisma 2.1

The lines used for underlines and strikeouts may appear broken 
when using an ATM font.  This is due the way these Micrografx 
products handle character placement.

If you rotate text at a 90 degree angle and then stretch it, you 
may find that the font will not be properly resized.  To avoid 
this problem, first resize the font and then rotate it.

Rotating stretched text at a 180 degree angle may cause the last 
letters in the text string to overlap.  In this case, first 
rotate the text by 180 degrees and then stretch it.

Rotated text at certain angles will sometimes print with expanded 
character spacing on non-PostScript printers.  To correct this 
problem try using the Print View option and selecting the entire 
page.


FaceLift for Windows

FaceLift for Windows modifies the printer entries in the WIN.INI.  
If FaceLift is installed, the ATM Installer and Control Panel can 
not recognize the installed PostScript printers and will not 
properly add PostScript soft fonts entries for these printers.  
Before adding fonts for PostScript printers, you must first 
temporarily disable the "Print with FaceLift" option in FaceLift 
Control Panel.  After the fonts have been installed, you can 
reinstate the FaceLift printer option.


Harvard Draw 1.01

Harvard Draw 1.01 support ATM fonts.  You must restart the 
application for font changes to take effect.


Harvard Graphics 1.01 for Windows

Harvard Graphics cannot rotate ATM fonts.  Harvard uses its own 
internal scalable fonts for all rotated text. 

For font changes to take effect you must select another printer 
driver and switch back to the original driver.  

If you are using Harvard Graphics and ATM with a high-resolution 
video driver, you must obtain the maintenance upgrade version 
1.021 or higher.


Micrografx PostScript Driver

The Micrografx PostScript driver has a unique printer section 
structure in the WIN.INI. PostScript soft fonts cannot be 
installed to this driver using the ATM Installer and Control 
Panel.  You can, however, install your fonts through the 
Micrografx Printer Setup menu.  See your Micrografx manual for 
instructions.


Norton Desktop for Windows 2.0

Due to the different structure of Norton Desktop's application 
groups, the ATM icon might not be properly installed into the 
Main group when you are running Norton as your desktop shell.  If 
this occurs, you must manually add the ATM Control Panel icon.  
The ATM Installer will, however, copy all of the necessary files 
to your system and will configure Windows to run ATM.  Please 
refer to the Norton Desktop manual for installing a new icon in a 
group.


Quattro Pro for Windows 1.0

You must restart the application for font changes to take effect.


PageMaker 4.0

For best results with ATM, set the "Vector text above" and 
"Stretch text above" limits in the Preferences dialog box to 
10000 pixels each.


TypeAlign 2.0

If you receive the error message "Application requested abnormal 
termination" after installing TypeAlign under Windows 3.1, you 
must manually remove the entry TALGNDLL.EXE from the load line of 
the WIN.INI.  This file is not Windows 3.1 compatible.   The new 
TypeAlign Installer 2.1 will not add this line to the WIN.INI.


Ventura Publisher Windows Edition 

Adobe recommends using version 4.1.  For upgrade information, 
please contact Ventura at (800) 822-8221.

The fonts Helvetica and Times will not display correctly in 
Reduced View.


Word for Windows 2.0a

Double underlines may print as one thick underline at point sizes 
larger than 18 points.  This is due to the method Word for 
Windows uses to perform double underlining.

Smart quotes (characters Alt +0147 and Alt+0148) may print out as 
double single quotes with some printer drivers.  The generic 
bullet character (Alt+0149) may print out as a lowercase o.


Various Applications with Draft Mode Printing Feature

Some applications which support draft mode printing do not print 
graphics when they print in draft mode.  When ATM is configured 
to print ATM fonts as graphics, text might not print correctly in 
draft mode.


Various Font Management Utilities

Some font management utilities such as FontMinder 1.0 and the 
font conversion utility AllType automatically update the ATM.INI.  
You must restart Windows for font changes in the ATM.INI 
introduced by these utilities to take effect.


Virus Protection Software

Some virus protection software packages will not allow the ATM 
Installer to replace previous versions of ATM software.  If you 
have this problem, first scan your hard drive for viruses.  Then 
temporarily disable your virus protection software while you 
install ATM.  Remember to re-enable your virus protection 
software and re-scan your hard disk after installing ATM.


WordPerfect for Windows 5.1

ATM requires the standard Windows printer drivers in order to 
print ATM text.  This means that the WordPerfect for Windows 5.1 
printer-specific driver cannot be used, unless you also use a 
third-party type utility such as PrimeType from LaserTools. 

WordPerfect for Windows uses its own screen fonts for preview, so 
ATM is not active in WordPerfect preview mode

Some special characters in the ANSI character set (with values 
higher than 128) do not print as displayed.  See your Windows 
documentation for the ANSI character set.


15.  Novell Netware Considerations

Although ATM is not a network application, you can print to 
network printers using ATM.  However, you must configure the File 
Contents section in your print job definition to specify Byte 
stream instead of Text.  The Byte stream option is required 
because ATM sends raster graphics to non-PostScript printers.

To add fonts from a network drive, you must first load a 
SHELL.CFG file containing the line "show dots = on".  Use IPX.COM 
to load the SHELL.CFG file.

There is also a 34-character limit for the PostScript target 
directories for the PFB and PFM files.  If your target directory 
name exceeds this limit, use the MAP ROOT command (instead of the 
usual map command) to map the directory to a simulated root 
directory.


16.  ATM and IBM 4029 Series Printers

To use ATM with one of the IBM 4029 series printers, you must 
install version 3.01 or later of the 4029 printer driver and 
version 1.65 or later of the Generic printer driver.  These 
versions are included with Windows 3.1.  If you are using Windows 
3.0, contact your printer dealer or manufacturer for the latest 
drivers.


17.   Troubleshooting

Justified Text Exceeds Right Margin On Screen

Justified text sometimes extends beyond the right margin on 
screen, but prints correctly.  This happens particularly at small 
point sizes.  Two situations can cause this problem:

*  Windows uses a screen font for a font of a different size.  
   Turning off the Use Pre-built or Resident Fonts option in the
   ATM Control Panel corrects this problem.
*  The problem is caused by roundoff errors occurring when an 
   application calculates the total width of a line of text. 
   This problem cannot be corrected.


Documents Containing the Arial MT and TimesNewRomanPS Fonts Print 
Slowly

If, after upgrading to Windows 3.1, you find that documents 
containing the fonts Arial MT and TimesNewRomanPS print more 
slowly on a PostScript printer, you can take the following steps 
to improve printing speed.  These fonts are often used as 
substitutes for the font Helvetica and Times when included when 
ATM is bundled with another product.  If you are using the fonts 
Arial MT and TimesNewRomanPS, add the following lines to both the 
[Aliases] section and [Synonyms] section of your ATM.INI file.

   Helvetica=Arial MT
   Times=TimesNewRomanPS

The lines Helv=Arial MT and Tms Rmn=TimesNewRomanPS should 
already be present in both ATM.INI sections.


Helvetica and Times display upside-down.

If the fonts Helvetica and Times display upside-down, check in 
the ATM Control Panel to see if you have all of the following 
fonts  installed: Helvetica, Times, Arial MT and TimesNewRomanPS.  
If so, you must manually edit the ATM.INI file and replace the 
lines Helv=Arial MT, Helvetica=Arial MT, Tms Rmn=TimesNewRomanPS 
and Times=TimesNewRomanPS in the Aliases and Synonyms sections 
with the lines Helv=Helvetica and Tms Rmn=Times.

Appendix A. ATM.INI Parameters

The following section contains technical information on ATM 
version 2.5's initialization file.  This file is divided up into 
six sections: Fonts, Setup, Settings, Mono, Aliases, and 
Synonyms.

[Fonts]   This section contains a list of all of the fonts 
          installed with ATM and the locations of the PostScript
          PFM and PFB files for each font.  The fonts listed here
          are available to all non-PostScript printers for screen
          display and printing.  The fonts available to 
          PostScript printers are based on the PostScript 
          soft-font entries in the specific printer section of 
          the WIN.INI file and the ROM-based fonts in the 
          printer.  If a font is listed in both WIN.INI and 
          ATM.INI, ATM will rasterize the font to the screen.  
          The printing of fonts to PostScript devices is solely 
          the responsibility of the PostScript driver and 
          Windows.  ATM does not have to be active when printing 
          to PostScript devices.

          Although a particular application will allow you to 
          bold or italicize a certain font, your PostScript 
          printer will not be able to render the bold or italic 
          font unless an outline for the bold or italic font is 
          available.  On non-PostScript printers, however, ATM 
          will synthesize a bold, italic or bold italic version 
          of a font based on the roman outline if the outline of 
          the desired font style is not present.

          When the ATM 2.5 Installer creates the [Fonts] section 
          of the ATM.INI, it adds all the PostScript fonts found 
          in the installation disk as well as any PostScript 
          fonts listed as soft-font entries for PostScript 
          printers in the WIN.INI file.  If you are upgrading 
          from a previous version of ATM, the Installer also adds
          all the fonts listed in the current ATM.INI file.


[Setup]
PFM_Dir   Default PFM directory for the ATM Control Panel when 
          adding PostScript fonts.  
PFB_Dir   Default PFB directory for the ATM Control Panel when 
          adding PostScript fonts.


[Settings]
FontCache=96        Specifies the size of the font cache in 
                    kilobytes.  This option is configurable 
                    through the ATM Control Panel.  The default 
                    is 96k.  It is recommended that this value 
                    not be set to more than 64k for each megabyte 
                    of physical memory.  
ATM=On              Determines whether or not ATM will be loaded 
                    at Windows startup time.
BitmapFonts=On      This switch is set with the Use Pre-Built or 
                    Resident Fonts check box on the ATM Control 
                    Panel.  If you change this switch, you do not
                    have to restart Windows for the change to 
                    take effect.  You might, however, have to
                    restart applications for the setting to take 
                    effect. The default setting is On.  ATM will
                    defer to screen fonts, resident printer 
                    fonts, and printer soft fonts rather than
                    rasterizing the font itself if the bitmap 
                    of the font requested in available.
SynonymPSBegin=9    This value specifies the point size at which 
                    ATM will start using bitmap deferral for font
                    pairs listed in both the Aliases and Synonyms 
                    sections.  The default is 9.  It is not 
                    recommended that this setting be changed.
QLCDir              Indicates the path of the ATM QuickLoad file,
                    ATMFONTS.QLC.
                    
                    ATMFONTS.QLC contains a list of installed 
                    fonts and font metrics, which reduces Windows 
                    startup time.  You can force ATM to rebuild
                    this file by deleting the file with the 
                    MS-DOS DEL command and restarting Windows.
Version=2.5         This value enables the ATM Installer to
                    determine the version of ATM if ATM is not 
                    active; otherwise, the Installer determines
                    the version of ATM from the DLL.
DownloadFonts=On    This switch instructs ATM to print text as 
                    soft fonts for Windows 3.1 printer drivers
                    that support this feature.


[Mono]
Courier=Yes         This section contains a list of monospaced
LetterGothic=Yes    fonts.
PrestigeElite=Yes
Orator=Yes


[Aliases]   This section tells ATM to substitute the font on the 
            right of the equal sign for the font on the left of
            the equal sign when an application requests the font
            on the left of the equal sign.  The ATM Installer
            defines aliases for the fonts Helv, Tms Rmn, Courier,
            Roman, and Modern.

            When the Use Pre-built or Resident Fonts option is
            turned on, ATM uses the resident bitmapped fonts for
            point sizes for which bitmaps exist. When The Use
            Pre-built or Resident option is turned off, ATM uses
            the PostScript outline font to rasterize all 
            sizes of the aliased bitmapped font.

Helv=Helvetica             The fonts left of the equals sign are
Tms Rmn=Times              Windows bitmapped fonts.  By using
Courier=Courier            PostScript outline fonts, ATM can
                           rasterize a smooth font when these
                           fonts are requested at sizes not
                           available in bitmapped form.


Roman=Times                These settings enable ATM to use
Modern=Helvetica           PostScript outlines instead of the
                           standard Windows vector fonts.


Courier=Courier            This setting is needed if an 
                           application requests the smallest
                           available fixed-pitch font.  If this
                           line is not present, ATM provides some
                           applications with a 1-point Courier
                           font.


Helv=Arial MT              If you have received ATM bundled with
Helvetica=Arial MT         another application, you may have the 
Tms Rmn=TimesNewRomanPS    fonts Arial MT and TimesNewRomanPS 
                           Times=TimesNewRomanPS instead the 
                           standard fonts Helvetica and Times. 
                           You should have these lines present 
                           in both the Aliases and Synonyms 
                           sections.  These settings tell ATM 
                           to use internal printer fonts when 
                           printing Arial MT and TimesNewRomanPS 
                           to a PostScript printer.  This reduces
                           the time required to print documents 
                           and improves the quality of bold and 
                           italic text styles.

                           If you have all four faces (Helvetica,
                           Times, Arial MT and TimesNewRomanPS),
                           you should use the font pairs 
                           Helv=Helvetica and Tms Rmn=Times in
                           these sections.


[Synonyms]


Helv=Helvetica             Unlike the font pairs in the Aliases
Tms Rmn=Times              section,the font pairs in the Synonyms
Courier=Courier            are interchangeable.  This means that
                           when the font Helv is requested at a
                           point size not available in bitmapped 
                           form, the font Helvetica will be used.
                           
                           In Windows 3.0 & 3.0a when the font
                           Helvetica is requested and a bitmapped
                           Helv font of the exact size is
                           available, ATM will use the Helv 
                           bitmap to display the font on the
                           screen.  

                           In Windows 3.1, the screen fonts Helv
                           and Tms Rmn have been replaced by MS
                           Sans Serif and MS Serif, so screen
                           font deferral does not apply.


[Colors]	           This section may be added to the
                           ATM.INI to override internal ATM 
                           defaults.  The switch is global for
                           all applications.  While enabling this
                           switch may be useful for a special
                           purpose in a particular application,
                           it can also produce unexpected results
                           in other applications you are using at
                           the same time when this switch is in
                           effect.

PrintColorGraphics=Off     This switch instructs ATM to print 
                           colored text as soft fonts under
                           Windows 3.1 rather than dithered 
                           graphics.  The printer driver must
                           support soft font creation for this
                           switch to work.  For most printer
                           drivers the resulting soft fonts will
                           print as black or white fonts.
