<+@><:s><:#480,10560>This read me file provides information about enhancements to the software and corrections to the printed documentation.
@a-head@<+@><:s><:#280,10560>Fonts - Understanding the AMIFONT.INI file
<+@><:s><:#480,10560>The AMIFONT.INI file is located in the WINDOWS directory and contains lists of fonts that Ami Pro can use to display text on the screen. The file is divided into sections, with each section representing a group of screen fonts.
<+@><:#960,10560>The AMIFONT.INI file automatically lists six sections. Five sections correspond to the font families provided with Windows: Roman, Swiss, Modern, Script, and Decorative. The sixth section represents a group for fonts not listed in any other group. In most c
ases, these six groups will provide Ami Pro with correct screen fonts for any printer fonts you use in a document.
<+@><:s><:#480,10560>Ami Pro uses the information in the AMIFONT.INI file only when you select a font that is available as a printer font but is not available as a screen font. This can occur when:
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#240,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> There is no screen font with the exact same typeface name as the printer font.
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#240,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> A matching screen font cannot be scaled to the point size you specified.
<+@><:s><:#240,10560>If either situation exists, Ami Pro checks the AMIFONT.INI file to see if the printer font is listed in any group.
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#480,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> If the printer font is listed in a group, Ami Pro chooses a screen font that is within the same group and currently available.
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#480,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> If the printer font is not listed in any group, Ami Pro chooses a screen font that is within the matching Windows font family group.
<+@><:s><:#720,10560>For example, your printer supports a Palatino font, but you do not have a matching Palatino screen font. Ami Pro chooses one of the fonts listed in the Roman group, such as Tms Rmn, as the screen font for Palatino. Ami Pro cannot choose Caslon Open Face for
Palatino because that font is not listed in the Roman group.
<+@><:s><:#960,10560>If you are using unusual printer fonts, you may need to add a group to the AMIFONT.INI file so ami Pro will choose a compatible screen font. For example, your printer supports a downloadable Bodoni font, but you do not have a matching Bodoni screen font. Yo
u want to make sure Ami Pro chooses Goudy as the screen for Bodoni. In the AMIFONT.INI file, type the following lines:
@1st lev para@<+@><:#240,10560><[>Group#] - where # equals the next consecutive number after the last existing group number.
@1st lev para@<+@><:#240,10560>Font1=Bodoni
@1st lev para@<+@><:#240,10560>Font2=Goudy
<+@><:s><:#240,10560>Ami Pro chooses the Goudy screen font when you select Bodoni as the desired font for your text.
<+@><:s><:#240,10560>Follow these guidelines if you need to modify the AMIFONT.INI file:
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#720,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> If you want to force Ami Pro to choose one of several screen fonts when you use a particular printer font, create a new group and list both the printer font and the desired screen fonts in that group. The order of the fonts does not ma
tter.
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#480,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> If you want to force Ami Pro to choose only one screen font when you use a particular printer font, create a group that contains only one printer font and one screen font.
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#480,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> Type the font names exactly as they appear in the Ami Pro Font list box, including spaces, but excluding capitalization.
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#240,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> Do not specify the same font name in more than one group.
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#240,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> Do not skip any numbers between groups or between fonts within a group.
@bulleted list@<+@><:s><:#240,10560><:f,2Symbol,></w><:f> Do not add unusual font names to the Windows font family groups.
@a-head@<+@><:s><:#280,10560>Fonts - Adobe Type Manager
<+@><:#480,10560>If you installed Adobe Type Manager, the ATM Installer program transfers a file named ATM.INI to your WINDOWS directory. Settings in ATM.INI control how ATM works.
<+@><:#720,10560>After you install ATM, text in other Windows applications may look slightly different on screen because ATM substitutes its scaleable fonts for certain Windows bitmap fonts. The point size at which ATM makes this substitution is controlled by the SynonymPSB
egin= statement in ATM.INI.
<+@><:#960,10560>SynonymPSBegin= is initially set to 9. This means ATM substitutes its fonts for Windows fonts that are larger than 9 points. You change this statement to SynonymPSBegin=13 so that ATM substitutes its fonts for Windows fonts that are larger than 13 points. O
ther Windows applications that use 10 and 12 point fonts will continue to look the same as they did before you installed ATM.
@b-head@<+@><:s><:#280,10560>To remove ATM from your hard disk
<+@><:s><:#240,10560>If you experience difficulties with ATM soft fonts, you can remove ATM from the hard disk and reinstall it.
@Numbered List@<+@><:s><:#240,10560> 1. If you installed additional fonts, copy those font files to a temporary directory.
