You cannot reliable work with both fonts if they are installed at the same time. You may think you are picking the TrueType or Type 1 
version of the font, but the one which is used can change 
unpredictably. 
��

I don't want to use the Type 1 fonts. I have used ATM 4.1 to make them inactive. I want only to use the TrueType fonts. Heck, I didn't even want the PostScript fonts Times New Roman, Arial, and Symbol on my system, but Adobe silently installed them, at least twice, thus giving me three sets of fonts with the same name. 

How do I turn off the Type 1 fonts Arial, TNR, and Symbol? After I do that, how do I persuade Illustrator to let me choose the TrueType versions? 

Thanks Aandi.  

Cheers, 

Sean
