No, I think it's safe to say that ATM 4.1 Deluxe works fine.  A minor
bug-fix (ATMFIX.EXE) is available from the Adobe Web site and is recommended.

I think the incompatibility is with Windows itself.  The font that causes
the problem in my installation is Lucida Sans Typewriter, bold italic.  In
my opinion, the name change should go on the list of items to be fixed by
Y&Y as soon as possible.  It should be easy and cheap to fix.
