An RTF of A&Z.

DejaVu Serif glyphs for "a" and "z" differ in deferent faces:

In Bold, Book, Condensed, & Condensed Bold; "a" & "z" look more like the Times
New Roman's "a" & "z".

in Bold Italic, Condensed Bold Italic, Condensed Italic, & Italic; "a" is more
like a hand-written "a" and "z" is more flamboyant.

Don't get me wrong, I much prefer the Italic versions of "a" & "z", indeed I
would love to use a complete font designed around a more pleasing, gentle look
to DejaVu. But it seems strange to have very different glyphs in sister
typefaces.</pre>
