Why are there "cobwebs" on my letters?!?

This may be one for the FAQ or might even be a "dumb" question, but here
goes anyway: I downloaded Logger and LowerEastSide from umich and ran them
through the appropriate utilities so that I could use them on my PC. The
only problem is that instead of "clean" letters, some of them have what I
would describe as "cobwebs" on them. That is, some have thin jagged lines
running across the open spaces in the letters, as though a spider had spun
a messy web on them. I'v noticed this on ather fonts as well. It only seems
to affect some of the letters of fome of the fonts, however. BTW, I'm using
ATM 2.0 and AmiPro 3.0. Both the screen fonts and the printed fonts appear the
same. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Does anyone know of a solution?

On another note, I think Logger is a great font! I would like to use it for 
my cub scout newsletters. The only problem (other than the cobwebs) is that
there aren't any numbers included! Does anyone know of a rustic typeface
like logger that has numerals??? If not, can the author of Logger add the
numerals, please?

Thanks for any help,
Joe
