A colleague of mine produces a journal. Currently the articles are written with amstex using the usual cm fonts and typset on a high resolution typsetter; the result is quite nice . . . . but . . . The cm fonts appear to be very compact, and the resulting copy is quite dense. We would like to find fonts that produce more "readable" copy (e.g., a font more like schoolbook or bookman as compared to times). Has anyone produced such a font? (Of course it would need to have all the proper mathematics symbols, or coexist well with the cm symbols.) Does Adobe's Lucida font work well with mathematics? Is Knuth's Concrete font easier to read than the cm fonts? What does Academic Press use in their journals (these seem to be less compactly set than the ams journals)?
