Good font for faxing?

I'm using the latest gnu/mit fax software (3.2) with the latest
ghostscript (v2.4.1 4/21/92) and the 2.4.1 fonts.  I use Sun's
enscript (v2.2 87/11/17) to convert ascii to PostScript.

Everything works fine, but the font is sort of ugly.  It certainly is
not a good font for that resolution.

Can anyone suggest a better font?  What qualities should I look for in
a good font for faxing?

Thanks in advance,

Tom

      Maybe Bush will follow Perot's lead.
