+<h3>Fonts go fuzzy when you switch to T1</h3>
+<!-- crippled blurry -->
+<p>You've been having problems with hyphenation, and someone has
+suggested that you should use "<code>\</code><code>usepackage[T1]{fontenc}</code>"
+to help sort them out.  Suddenly you find that your final PDF
+has become fuzzy.  The problem may arise whether you are using PostScript
+output and then distilling it, or you are using PDFTeX for the
+whole job.
+<p>In fact, this is the same problem as most others about the
+
+<a href="FAQ-dvips-pdf.html">quality of PDF</a>: you've abandoned
+your previous setup using Type 1 versions of the CM fonts, and
+<i>dvips</i> has inserted Type 3 versions of the EC fonts
+into your document output.  (See 
+"<a href="FAQ-adobetypen.html">Adobe font types</a>"
+for details of these font types; also, note that the font <em>encoding</em> T1
+has nothing directly to do with the font <em>type</em> Type 1).
+<p>However, as noted in 
+"<a href="FAQ-type1T1.html">8-bit Type 1 fonts</a>",
+Type 1 versions of CM-like fonts in T1 (or equivalent) encoding
+are now available, both as "real" fonts, and as virtual font sets.
+One solution, therefore, is to use one of these alternatives.
+<p>The alternative is to switch font family altogether, to something like
+<i>Times</i> (as a no-thought default) or one of the many more pleasing
+Adobe-encoded fonts.  The default action of <i>fontinst</i>, when
+creating metrics for such a font, is to create settings for both OT1
+and T1 encodings, so there's little change in what goes on (at the
+user level) even if you have switched to T1 encoding when using the
+fonts.
