Zapf Dingbat NT Problem Solved

[Lee Stone <Lee.Stone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to all who responded.  Rhea Tolman suggested a patch from Adobe, and
that worked.  Dingbats now display correctly in both FrameMaker and Word on
Windows NT 4.0.  To obtain the font metric patch, go to
http://www.adobe.com/supportservice/custsupport/LIBRARY/34c2.htm.

> Platform:  Windows NT, service pack 4, ATM 4.0 for NT, FrameMaker 5.1.2.
> 
> Has anyone else had problems displaying the Zapf Dingbat Postscript font
on
> Windows NT?  I have the Dingbats font loaded and activated in ATM, but
when
> I type the 0224 ANSI code, instead of the dashed rightfacing arrow, the
> display shows a WingDings ANSI 0224 arrow.  However, the symbol prints and
> distills into PDF correctly as a Zapf Dingbat on my PostScript printer.

> I don't have any font substitutions for Zapf Dingbats set up, and I'm
using

> CORRECTLY in MS Paint and MS WordPad! Anybody have any ideas??
