Not all of the fonts on cica "work".  As you've discovered, a few of them make
ATM sick as hell.

This is what you want to do:

  1) Move all the pfb and pfm files to some other directory (temporarily)
  2) Purge ATM as described in the manual (including the .qlc file)
  3) Reinstall it.
  4) Move all the fonts back to the directory, and add them all from ATM.
  5) Try displaying them ONE AT A TIME from Word, or something like that.
       THE FIRST ONE THAT DOESN'T APPEAR - DELETE IT!
       Then, remove and reinstall all other fonts from the ATM control panel.

   Keep doing this until all the fonts installed work, and you'll have no more
   problems. I have 50 of the cica fonts installed, with no more problems.
   (It's not that the other 50 are defective (only about 4) but that I didn't
   like the rest.

   After all that is done, do the annoying thing with win.ini, making SURE
   all references to the messed-up fonts are gone.

Hope this helps.  It worked for me.
