Lessee...  I spent a Saturday once designing a 'blob' for overstrike
printing when I was creating a banner print program...  The letters Z N A V
create a rectangular blob with just a hint of daylight.

What would you get if you printed  @ O o 0   or  0 S O o @   ??  How fussy
is the form as far as extra 'fuzz' outside of the circle?
