As per the instructions with the fonts at cica, I modified the WIN.INI
softfont(n)= entry to include the ',d:/path/fontname.pfb'. While I have
no problem printing to either the HP LJ nor my trusty Epson FX-80, funky
fonts on postscript printer comes out 'courier'... Inspection of the
file itself has no sign of any thing that resembles downloaded fonts.
Called Adobe... they asked me to buy their fonts :-) if I wanted
support! ATM support didn't cut it!!
Ideas?

When I contacted Adobe about a similar problem WITH and Adobe font the tech support advised me that the win.ini had to be manually modified When you install for a PostScript printer ATM doesn't automatically include the font as a download font because ATM doesn't know whether your PostScript printer NEEDS the font. You may have a hard disk on your printer with fonts, your printer may have the font builtin, or you may have a font cartridge. Here is a part of my Win.ini file. You can see that the first font has been manually edited to add the second part which advises about the download file. Note that the second and third fonts do not have the download part and therefore unless that font is builtin or pre-loaded the printout will contain Courier (my favorite) in place of those. [PostScript,LPT1] feed1=1 feed15=1 device=11 softfonts=11 softfont1=c:\psfonts\pfm\ca______.pfm,c:\psfonts\ca______.pfb softfont2=c:\psfonts\pfm\ctr_____.pfm softfont3=c:\psfonts\pfm\cti_____.pfm Hope this helps some folks! tj
