Hi,

I'm having a problem with downloaded fonts to my TI Microlaser PS35

I'm running Adobe Type Manager with Windows 3.1 and the Micrographx 
postscript driver. Whenever I use the type 1 fonts supplied with ATM
and Micrographx Designer, the printer defaults to courier unless I 
first download the font explicitly. Taking the postscript file produced
by the printer driver to another system and sending it to a HP Laserjet III
with a postscript cartridge works as expected. TrueType fonts work as
expected. It's just type 1 fonts, and it's just the TI Microlaser.

I can work around it by explicitly downloading the fonts so it's not
a major problem. It is annoying and I'd prefer to fix it :-)

Any good ideas, or explnations, or ......
