Are you talking about ATM Light or ATM Deluxe? ATM Deluxe, with its font management features, is not supported. Other font management utilities are widely available. The only need for ATM on Windows XP is if you're using Multiple Master fonts. XP contains built-in support for Type 1 and all OpenType fonts. Unlike Windows NT4, which converted T1's to Truetype, Windows XP and Windows 2000 use Type 1 fonts natively. I have no idea what configuration or other utilities you may have that resulted in the message "creator of font doesn't want font converted to true type". This is definitely NOT a Windows or Adobe message, and I've never seen anything in Fontographer or FontLab (font creation programs) that would provide such a creator's option. Note that if you have already installed ATM 4.1, removing it destroys XP's native ability to install and use Type 1 fonts. One remedy is to install 4.1.2 and then un-install it, which leaves XP's T1 handling intact. - Herb
