- That's because TT downloads font info to the printer, while Adobe was
- downloading the fonts as raster images... ATM 2.5 now downloads font
- info and is quite good at it...

- I was using both TT & ATM, and now with 2.5, I'm converting all my
- fonts back to ATM because ATM actually manages the font inventory rather
- than loading the whole shebang like TT... With the number of fonts I
- have installed this was a problem because it was killing my available
- Windows System resources...
