I have seen some of their fonts and they didn't look too bad, although the truth will only come out at higher resolutions than 300 dpi. However, I found for example their Bodoni-DTC to be aesthetically preferable to most other Bodonis I have seen. So, I was wondering, if DTC is any good in the technical department as well, and if yes, where can I buy these fonts? Ulrich Mayring DTC font sets come bundled with several products, including LaserMaster printers and Micrografx Designer. DTC fonts are hinted, but make no use of hint replacement, for example. If you have `commercial grade' fonts from other foundries, you may want to make sure that installation of the DTC fonts does not overwrite them with fonts that use the same file names...
