" Huh ?  300 dpi is 300 dpi.

It's possible for the software to be at fault.  I remade the Computer
Modern Roman fonts that came ith the TeX distribution following
Knuth's recommendations in the Metafont Book for parameter settings
for high resolution printers.  The new versions look very noticeably
better on my Apple LW than the distribution versions did.
