The sample sheets appear to have been done at 18 pt, large enough
that most details make it through the fax process. However, I think
the sheets are better used as an indication of the available
character set. I wouldn't base my final buying decision for a
text typeface on the fax sheets alone, but it's a help, especially
with the pi fonts.
