Hmmm. I've always had problems getting the windows gv thing to give me
nice looking output, but it usually comes out ok on the page when you
print it. If you zoom in does it still look naff? Failing that, have you
tried using the linux gv on the output? I think that has antianilasing
stuff switched on by default.

Ah. I think I probably always use vector fonts then. Another thing to
unlearn...
