Could you explain why ATM doesn`t work because the printer is 360dpi?
ATM is supposed to scale the font to the resolution of the output device.
Maybe I missed something....
Also, I saw the output from truetype and it was a little better then what
I've seen from some ATM outputs.  It is certainly (or seems to be) faster.


Thanks.
