Alexander,
  I want to apologize for accusing you. The way you had your message worded
didn't make it sound like you owned a copy, but were just flaming Adobe and
ATM because it wasn't perfect. Again, I'm sorry.

One of the problems of trying to keep a manual small and readable for all 
levels of users. I'll add a "list/explanation" of techinical features to
the want list for the next version.

Adobe is working on a better solution to all spacing and other problems with 
ATM.  Since it is such new and in many ways radical technology there were 
problems that appeared (in larger scale) than first imagined. Reminds on my 
first 128K Mac. All of our registered users (hint: send in those reg cards 
- you may win that printer too) will receive information on when any 
updates/upgrades to ATM will be made available.  Once again, sorry if I 
"ass-u-me-d" too much. I hope Adobe will have you back as a satisfied 
customer in the near future.
