To throw my 17 cents in (the cost of one page to users at UCSD), I
was having big problems with the character spacing on the QMS. I did
all the problem fixing on the laser printer before sending it to the
typesetter, and nothing I found would make the J character any
further from any other character in the line. That is, until I sent
it to the typesetter, when everthing turned out fine.

During Usenix in Jan., I talked with a woman at the QMS both about
font quality and the difficulty of making good looking fonts for a
Xerographic device.  Her reaction was something like "oh, you understand!
I wish you could talk to my management."  Appearently her bosses think
fonts are a trival matter.
