Thanks for the info, msycamore. I thought the Telecine subs were original.

I came across Franklin Gothic Book the other day when trying to clean up the "long time ago" for the covers I'm working on. I didn't like my digitized version, and Harmy's new 5-min preview rendered it moot because it was much sharper, but I realized that's what they must have done for the Prequels. I lined up every word individually, and, like yours, it was darn close, but just anemic compared to the original, like it appears in those "other" movies. :P

I like finding out these little bits of info about the different processes. Speaking of, does anybody know somewhere I can find out how they did the original subs, titles, and such back in '77? Curious how things like that got made in the pre-digital age.

Oh, and here's the same screen from the Puggo Grande for reference. Harmy, looks like your thicker font is closer to original. I, too, do not notice any fade in and out, though, even on this version. (But, as always, this is just info; I trust your judgement. :) )
