I did a bit of review of the fm/2 code and the PM refs and this works as I
surmised at the meeting. You are saving and restoring the presentation
parameters that are known to the frame window. Child windows will inherit
these parameters via the parent chain unless overridden. Presentation
parameters unique to specific child windows will need special handling.
In the case of fm/2, WM_PRESPARAMCHANGED messages trigger code that stores
the child window specfic parameters to the private ini.

I suspect once you get your font code working to support multiple
typefaces, you will need to do something similar.

Regards,

Steven
