Maybe I spoke incorrectly as well. I'm not sure where the names came from originally I suppose. I have a few font sets in a folder. I just add one. It imports a bunch of fonts and they are named in a very simlar way. For example AGaramond-regular: files - C:\PSFONTS\gdrg____.PFB C:\PSFONTS\PFM\gdrg____.pfm Those are the names in the font set. But once you use ATM to read the fonts all my apps can read them with the correct name just as if they were a regular TTF or something. (please pardon my lack of knowledge in the font subject. I'm just trying to figure all of this out) So because the names are all like that, amd I just stuck with ATM, or is there something else out there which can translate those back to more normal looking files that most apps can read? I'm curious also, how to then make it so another 200 or so employees here also have a few of those select fonts on their computer without needing this special software. I think that might be one reason we use ATM. It comes with our other software so is essentially free. We would probably purchase 15 or so licenses of whatever other software, but most people just need some of the fonts. They don't need to explore fonts. They just need to be able to open and edit some of the illustrator, photoshop, and PDF files which use the fonts. But how does IT install those fonts on multiple computers if we can't really tell what the font names are? I'm just not sure how that works.
