Hi all 

I recently installed adobe PS printing to setup a Dataproducts DDS24 Printer onto a W 2000 server.  Since installing it (at least I think it's the reason) no windows 2000 client has been able to print our in house fonts which are installed using ATM Light. 

How can I completely remove Adobe Postscript Printing to see if it is the cause of all our problems. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I've now got 5 w2000 laptops which can not print any of our standard documents. 

Kind regards 

Gerry Rigney

There is no such thing as "Adobe PostScript Printing" installed under Windows 2000. Adobe does provide a driver installer, but the underlying driver is indeed the standard Windows PostScript printer driver. 

With regards to the problem you report with printing, we have heard of similar symptoms from other users. It appears to be an internal Windows GDI/EMF spooling problem that seems to affect some fonts, but not others. 

There are two workarounds: 

(1) Install those "in-house fonts" on your server as well as on your desktop systems. (You don't need ATM for Type 1 font support under Windows 2000/XP unless you need Multiple Master support!) 

(2) On the desktop systems, disable the "advanced features" option in the driver. That disables EMF spooling to the server and forces the fonts to be included from the desktop systems.

Thank you very very much 

I've been trying to sort this problem for the past 2 weeks nearly and I was posting messages on the ATM section as I thought that was the problem. 

Kind regards
