ATM 4.6.2a, Adobeps 8.8, Mathematical Pi LT

askarzenski, 

      I believe that this is a bug in ATM.




Unfortunately, ATM Light and Deluxe are no longer produced or supported by
Adobe. So, even if this is a bug, it will not be fixed.

Is there some reason why you cannot migrate to OS X?

askarzenski,

Maybe this would help in a discussion with your publisher:

XPress 4 is ancient history -- IT'S EIGHT YEARS OLD! It is generally
unreasonable to still require it. A lot has happened to technology since, of
course. Do you still use an 8-year-old computer, SyQuests and floppies?

If nothing else, using a current software version saves time, allows the use of
newer features. And your publisher can open client files properly and
consistently as well.

Other options (aside from migrating over to the excellent InDesign CS2) is to
provide universal, high-resolution PDFs. You could create those in XPress 6.5 or
InDesign.

OS 9.x is also ancient history, and with a very robust Mac OS X 10.4.x, this
should be another consideration.

Is there some overwhelming reason why he won't allow you to migrate to today's
workflows?

There's a bigger problem here - Adobe ships Mathematical Pi LT Std as a single
font, although it was six separate fonts in its old Type 1 form.

 <http://store.adobe.com/type/browser/P/P_1367.html>
 <http://store.adobe.com/type/browser/P/P_158.html>

Either somebody has split up the Adobe font, somebody has converted the Type 1
fonts by hand, or you have a very very early pre-release version of the font(s).
In any case, you are not using the retail fonts as shipped by Adobe, and one
therefore suspects that the problem lies in the fonts.
