Automatic font substitution

If you use the Adobe Type Manager (ATM) font substitution feature, ATM temporarily
substitutes fonts when the illustration is opened, and the Missing Fonts dialog box does
not appear.
ATM automatically applies each missing font's metrics and weight to a multiple master font and
marks the font name with a diamond in the font menu. Line breaks and word spacing are
preserved, but the subtleties of the letterforms may be lost.
If you are concerned about typography, open the ATM control panel and deselect Enable Font
Substitution (Macintosh only).
