Incidentally, what size IS Adobe's Times Roman intended for -
all the different sizes it prints out are just scaled versions of
what presumably originated as a copy of one particular size of
a genuine (metal) Times Roman font. The letters of real (metal)
fonts are usually shaped differently (not scaled versions of one
another), at least a little, for each font (size of type).
