Re: FM7 on Windows XP: display problems

Roger,

You need to set text smoothing "on".

Right click anywhere on your desktop and select "Properties".
Then click the "Appearance" tab and then the "Effects" button.
Make sure the box is checked for "Use the following method to smooth
screen fonts" and select Standard if a CRT, CoolType if an LCD.
Then OK your way back to the desktop.

I have transferred a bunch of ATM PostScript fonts from my old 98SE system, installing them with ATM 4.1 Lite, and the display quality is inferior on XP, i.e. I can see the jaggies. I am using the same 19" monitor on XP as I used on the 98SE system; when installing it, XP called for and installed what it considered to be the correct up-to-date driver.
