Number of Nodes in ArchiveType Fonts

Due to a number of nodes (points needed to define the shape of each letter) it is recommendable to convert the fonts to outlines before printing. By doing this a user avoids potential shape deformations or errors in the process. For the same reason it is possible that some fonts might slow down the performance on some older computers.
