They should NOT be the same height. Letters like 'O' need to be slightly larger for them to appear to be the same size to the human eye. In the attached image, they are exactly the same height - but the 'o' appears to be distinctly smaller. > Il y a aussi un petit problème courbure avec v,w et y. My own eye isn't good enough to notice the difference. What is the source of 'Chartrand'? - Character Attachment: Chartrand-rom.jpg
