The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows versions 3.1, 3.11
- Microsoft Windows 3.1
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system version 5.0

SUMMARY
=======
The PRINTER.WRI files from the following retail packages containing Windows 3.1
incorrectly document a WIN.INI switch called TTFavor=<0-or-1>:
- Microsoft Windows operating system versions 3.1, 3.11
- Microsoft Windows & MS-DOS 5 for IBM PS/2
The correct switch is FavorTT=<0-or-1>.
In Windows 3.1, the FavorTT setting must be placed in the [ModelName,Port]
section of the WIN.INI file, not in the [PostScript,Port] section. For example:
Correct: [Apple LaserWriter II NTX,LPT3]
advflags=696
header=1
FavorTT=1
Incorrect: [PostScript,LPT1]
ATM=placeholder
FavorTT=1
FavorTT=<0-or-1> [default: 0]
-----------------------------
If a request for a font can be equally satisfied by both a device font or a
TrueType font, use the TrueType font if FavorTT is set to 1. Otherwise use a
device font.
These ties can easily occur. For example, if the application requests Tms Rmn but
only Times and Times New Roman are available, this is considered a tie.
