Subject: [9fans] The CW font with Lucidasans
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2009 16:02:12 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19f6e04e260686b3a552a7e2322f7577@yyc.orthanc.ca> (raw)

Mixing \f(CW with '.FP lucidasans' results in text that is wildly out
of proportion.  To my eye, the CW font needs to be scaled down by
about 1.5 points to visually match the surrounding text (at the -ms
default point size).  I'm curious if this has annoyed anyone else
enough that they've come up with a work-around.
