Hi!  I have a number of .AFM font files (Adobe Font Metrics?  Is that what
AFM stands for) that I got from a friend of mine ... can I use these with
ATM?  I've got ATM and am using several ATM font outlines (File type 'LWFN',
File creator 'ASPF').  Can the AFM files be used directly?  Do I need to
convert them?  Help!

Oh, if there is a FAQ on this, can you point me to that? Ootherwise, e-mail
is best (and if there is interest, I'll summarize back).  Thanks much!
