I use TAME 5.1 Pre 7. I've tried earlier and later versions
and I have problems with most, but very much fewer problems
with Pre 7. I too have access to all Windows fonts, and I
cannot say that I have serious problems with any, except that
I currently am having a bit of difficulty with the font Gentium
(available for free from the net), and the reason for my having
a problem is due entirely to something I did. I inadvertently
reset the font size and I am having difficulties return to my
preferred size on start-up. However, once in Xy, I can change
the size and the spacing easily by holding down the Ctrl key
and turning the mouse wheel. What I particularly like is seeing
intalic writing in Xy in italics on the screen, and not having
to judge that something is italics or bold or what-have-you
based on the background colour.
