Kerning: It Gets Worse
The "documents" aren't actually "kerned," LGF says. Kerning is a typesetter's process.
The "documents" in question are psuedo-kerned according to how Microsoft Word 97 built-in algorithm decides to space letters depending on how it thinks they read best.
In other words, not only is the spacing on the "documents" proportional, it's also proportional in precisely the same way that Microsoft Word 97's specific algorithm achieves proportionality.
But this document wasn't written in MS Word 97.
Oh, dear, no. The handwriting expert says so!
