Dramatically? Hardly. Both IBM and Microsoft have gone to great efforts to duplicate to precision the original Times Roman font, in Microsoft's case as a direct response to the Adobe/Microsoft font wars of the early '90's. To the degree that it would be impossible to factually state that a character shape that has been scanned and faxed is the exact shape of a printed Microsoft Word character shape - particularly at the extremely small point sizes that are being compared. The smaller the point size, the lower degree of detail as directly related to the precision of the output device. Fax machines are at best, 144dpi. PDFs for download are screen res. - 72dpi.
The claim that the memo's are forgeries due to technical issues has been demonstrated to be false. The entire claim of forgeries now rests on people claiming to know the mind of a dead man. Hardly compelling.
