Hi all,

Recently, my sister-in-law purchased a copy of Aldus Freehand to run under
Microsoft Windows.  However, it seems that Freehand doesn't know anything
about Windows 3.1's TrueType fonts (which is a pity, since I could give her
heaps of PD TrueType fonts from the Mac).

Freehand comes with Adobe Type Manager, so I've got her a heap of Type1s.
However, I would like to know whether anyone has heard of an update to
Aldus Freehand which recognizes TrueType.
