*As to Norms original question, there is not, as far as I know, a way to disable
*screen scaling and only use it on the printer.  But note that screen scaling
*only kicks in if ATM doesnt find a screen font in the requested size.  So if
*you have bitmaps in most of the screen sizes you use (and I reccomend this for
*speed reasons) then you will in effect have the disabling you want.

Can ATM be used to generate and save these bitmaps in a format that
can be loaded into the System File with the FontDA Mover? If so, how?
