What happens in Windows 2000 and XP?
If a font set does not contain a .PFM file, the .INF, .AFM, and
.PFB files are all used by the Windows Font applet to create the
.PFM. By dragging the .INF file into the Windows Font applet,
Windows will create the .PFM file for the user and add it to the
fonts directory. If the .PFM file already exists, the system only
needs the .PFM and the .PFB to use the font. A .PFM file can be
added directly into the fonts folder. The link will automatically be
made between the .PFM and the .PFB files.
Windows 2000 and XP have ATM built in so there is no need to
install it. On the other hand, ATM allows the user to install fonts
in their Fonts folder (or the /PSFONTS directory) so they can be
used in applications. As there is no need for the ATM executable
anymore, the Windows Font applet has been modified to allow
the user to add PostScript fonts. Without ATM the user must
manually (i.e. by dragging the font into the Fonts directory) add
PostScript fonts to the Fonts directory.
Fonts Installed by Adobe Type Manager (ATM)
PostScript fonts installed by ATM are stored in the PSFONTS
directory (C:\psfonts). The .PFB files are stored in this directory.
The .PFM files are stored in a PFM folder in the PSFONTS
directory (C:\psfonts\pfm).
TrueType fonts installed by ATM are stored in the ATMFolder
directory within the Windows Fonts directory (C:\Windows\
Fonts\ATMFolder).
Important! If you are using ATM Deluxe to manage your fonts,
you will need to replace it with ATM Light (provided on the
Extensis CD). See page 38, and pages 35 through 37.
