Nope. My FM 7 maker.ini was last modified back in October 2009. After distilling and printing one of my books, I find that it's not just a name change from semi to demi bold -- the font itself is different from what's in the previous printout of that book (and it's ugly). Looks like I'll have to choose a new font, because it appears that the TCS installation has overwritten my font files.
