As I understand it, LWFN are the old-style bitmap font suitcases, with a 
postscript version of the font in a 'POST' resource? I'm currently 
adding support to the ghostscript engine to load resource fork fonts on 
MacOS, so if it's as simple as that LWFN support would be easy to add.

I'm not familiar with ATM Deluxe. What format are those fonts shipped in?
