This vexes me. I am terribly vexed.

Philip Bouffard, a forensic document specialist from Ohio who created a commonly used database of at least 3,000 old type fonts, said he had suspicions as well. "I found nothing like this in any of my typewriter specimens," said Bouffard, a Democrat. He also said the fonts were "certainly consistent with what I see in Times Roman," the commonly used Microsoft Word font.
.
However, Bouffard said, a colleague had called his attention to similarities between the font in the memos and that of the IBM Selectric Composer of the early 1970s. He said there did in fact appear to be similarities and he was checking further.
.
But he said it would be unusual for Bush's commanding officer to have had the IBM machine because of its large size. Bouffard said that he would see on Friday if the fonts matched more closely.
