Ghostscript fonts look bad

A fews weeks ago, I installed GS 2.4 and fonts from the SIMTEL CD. I really
like the package - however, I don't like the fonts.

The SIMTEL fonts look just terrible.

I converted fonts from another source, they were much better, but some of the
letters were REALLY strange.

Is this a GS bug? Is it better in GS 2.5?

Which fonts are the best to use with GS?

Thanks a lot,

Ulrich

happened to them since I'm starting to worry if there is something wrong on my
