- Does anyone know the Digital (no, not International) Typeface Corporation (DTC)?
- I have seen some of their fonts and they didn't look too bad, although the truth
- will only come out at higher resolutions than 300 dpi. However, I found for
- example their Bodoni-DTC to be aesthetically preferable to most other Bodonis I
- have seen. So, I was wondering, if DTC is any good in the technical department
- as well, and if yes, where can I buy these fonts?

- DTC font sets come bundled with several products, including LaserMaster
- printers and Micrografx Designer.
-
- DTC fonts are hinted, but make no use of hint replacement, for example.
- If you have `commercial grade' fonts from other foundries, you may want to
- make sure that installation of the DTC fonts does not overwrite them with
- fonts that use the same file names...
