- But please note that this may lead to ugly spacing if you change
- fonts. It's especially good notable, if these fonts have different
- sizes. (Eg, try to switch to \small and compare the interword glue

- A real solution would put this into the fontswitching commands. Maybe
- NFSS has better hooks for this as lfonts.tex.
