The most likely culprit is your antivirus or “security suite” trying to be “helpful” and blocking Atlantis as malware or ransomware. Try registering Atlantis (i.e. its executable “awp.exe”) as a safe application with your security/antivirus application. For example, if you are using the AVAST antivi...

You cannot rotate text in Atlantis, but you can edit your picture in a graphic editor like Paint 3D, add text sideways, and rotate it appropriately.

The number of items in that drop-down normally depends on the value assigned to “Number of items in the histories” in the Atlantis Options (General tab).

I do not recall having to choose whether the font was only for the current user or for everybody.
Have a look at this picture.
You’ll see that you can install a font for the current user or “for all users”.

‘Out of memory’ relates to the amount of RAM available to Atlantis. How much hardware RAM do you have? How much RAM is actually being used (percentage value) when you are running Atlantis with several bulky documents? You’ll get this kind of information in the Windows Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Escape).
