I couldn't think of a better place to post this, so hear goes (he said,
Nomex at the ready).
I'm running Windows 3.0 with ATM 1.0 and 140+ installed PostScript fonts
(most public domain). I'm using the PostScript driver to print to a
disk file which I then display with GhostScript 2.2. Everything works
fine, including the fonts, which ATM downloads into the PS file at
print time.
However, when I use one font, Upper Westside, ATM spews out pure binary
into the PS file. I don't mean the ASCII representation of the binary
font data; it looks as if it just dumped the .PFB file into the output.
This isn't legal is PS, is it? GS barfed on the file (expectedly) and
that really doesn't bother me, but I expect a real printer wouldn't
like the binary stuff either. Am I right? Any ideas why this may be
happening with this font and not others? I haven't check all of my fonts,
(too many) but the 5-10 others I've used worked as expected.
Please e-mail if you can, as I don't ordinarily read this group. Many
thanx in advance.
