I have been plying with Adobe Type Manager for Windows for about two days now.
I got the ATM (comes with Courier, Helvtica, Times and Symbol) and the Adobe
Type Set I library (includes Bodoni Poster, Cottonwood, Freestyle Script, 
Hobo, Linotext, Trajan and VAG Rounded Bold) and this is really great. I have
not yet discovered any bugs or incompatibilities, although, I understand that
AMI Pro is the real problem package for all font software and I do not use AMI.

I have used ATM with WFW, Excel, Write, Paint, Micrografx Charisma, and
Crosstalk for Windows (does not like proportional fonts). I am holding the
printout from an Apple Laserwriter and looking at the WFW document on screen
(and this is not in Print Preview) and they are identical. Everything on the
screen is where it should be and looks like the font it is supposed to be.

All I can say is WOW. WOW!

Printing worked fine even though I print to a file and then transport the file
to the printer. Next I will see how it fairs on an HP Laserjet II with only
512k. Will let you all know how things turn out.
