I think the command is \NormalizeFontWidth.
The pdfTeX User Manual uses it just once, before the title. I am not certain 
what the scope of the command is. Is it global?

Is it intended for regular typesetting or just titles etc.?

I will try it out in any case to see what the effect is.

Thanks for the heads-up. I would have searched forever :-)
