Yet. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ A slight correction: Bitstream sells FaceLift, which provides scalable fonts for Windows 2.x and 3.0 applications, similar to ATM for Windows. In addition, there are other versions of FaceLift for some non-Windows applications. The main point here is that the fonts that come with FaceLift are not Type 1 fonts, so ATM cannot use them. I have suggested that Bitstream's sales people should state this more clearly for future callers. FWIW, FaceLift and ATM for Windows can be run simultaneously (giving you the best of both worlds :-). -Glenn- -- Glenn P.
