I am using Word for Windows with ATM installed. Lately I have added more ATM fonts, every other accessory programs show the new fonts under fonts selection except Word For Windows. I have exited windows with all changes saved, many times without sucess, then without any obvious reasons Word for windows reconized the new fonts. Last night I again loaded new ATM fonts to try, same trouble with W4W appeared. This time , I am unable to get W4W to list these fonts under characters selection. No touble with WRITE. Can anyone please help. Thnaks in advance.

WFW maintains it's own font information. To force it to rebuild it's font list, it is necessary to do a "File, Printer Setup" command (though you don't have to go any deeper in than that)

When you restart W4W, the application will ask you for your name, etc. The new font-list will be there when W4W automatically creates a new "WINWORD.INI" file. Hope this helps a little, -philip chenh@athena.ecs.csus.edu chenh@csusac.ecs.csus.edu

NO !!! There is no need for it !
As has been memtioned earlier, just do "Printer, Configure, etc. " and
everything will be okay.
(For the last time: W4W maintains its own fontlist...)
