Gladly. That makes the most sense. I believe Otared's example illustrates
that CM is not the best match with Euler. Any suggestions beyond my
beloved Charter?

However, my use of Charter is before typescripts... it's to bring in
accents that have a similar stroke width to Euler---even though CM is
used to create the virtual font, CM's accents are far too spindly.

Again, thanks for the hint on when to use that command. It's very
interesting to compare with my eye-driven guesses.

Cheers,
