When working in the drafting workbench, both Type 1 and True Type fonts are rendered poorly to the screen. I am pretty sure it is a question of anti-aliasing. No settings that I have tweaked have resulted in a smooth rendering of fonts to the screen.
The first attached file shows three fonts: SSS1 Type 1, Monospace 821 Type 1, and Monospace 821 Truetype. They all look horrible. The PDF display of the document does not suffer from the same problem. Notice that the lines are anti-aliased but the fonts are not.
Has any solved this problem? It disheartens me that I couldn't find any good hits on this topic. Doesn't anyone care about typography anymore? :)
