Q.How come I was able to install a PostScript font on my Windows NT 4.0 system without ATM?
Windows NT 4.0 can read PostScript fonts without ATM, but unfortunately it still can’t use them. Instead, NT uses its built-in PostScript to TrueType converter to make a low-quality TrueType font for screen display and printing. At this point, you can effectively use the font, but please realize that you’re using the low-quality TrueType conversion and not the original, high-quality PostScript font.
