when appling them if you set both mouse buttons to the same colour it makes things thicker, make one usually the left transparant. AQlso try it in Caps and lower case in some cases the numbers will thin as well from that. Also in some case the fonts do not have lower cases and they are thinner or thicker depending on the caps or Shift key being used.

Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it.

There's also the problem that 'Amarillo USAF Pro' isn't a freeware ttf, so many people use Machine BT as a substitute, of which is about twice as thick as Amarillo. I think it was AMT/ertl that started the use of Machine BT...
