I purchased ATM for Windows today and decided to experiment with the fonts
to see if I could use them with ghostscript.  I eventually got it to work
after striping some binary cruft from the front of the file, and from the
top and bottom of the eexec data.  I am curious to know what this binary 
stuff is, as it isn't documented in the black&white book.
