Counter Mix

If we're going Electronic, why not go all the way to putting them into fonts. As fonts, they can be scaled easily, and only the ones one wants need be printed.

(I have the minimum skills, but not the patience, nor good images to start from; S. John Ross has the skills and, based upon what he's got for sale, has better skills than me AND the patience...)

It's also worth noting that, using kerning pairs, one can do overstrikes for limited labels (a letter or number). (I've not see SJR do it, but it's not hard if one has the skills to build fonts.)
