Well, i've tried it, but it doesn't read very relaxed, the font just has
too much spacing between the characters.

Thanks for the suggestion, though.

>If you can find a freeware version of "Letter Gothic", that might suit you.

I have the font, but i've got the same problem with that one, there's too
much white in between the characters...
And it's really hard to explain what it is what you're looking for while i
don't even know what it should look like...
