The best were capable of proportional spacing, justification, and handling multiple fonts. The familiar IBM Executive and Selectric can be considered to be in the low-end of this family; the IBM Composing Selectric was a computer-driven, auto-justifying, high-end system. OK, and how common was such fancy equipment in bureaucratic orginizations in which pre-printed forms were expected to be filled out with a typwriter with fixed spacing? Frank Dresser |

They were almost certainly reproduced using a Microsoft spread sheet in order to make them more legible. I see no problem with this. I see a big problem with this. Such documents are not admissable evidence. In fact, anything short of direct photocopies is evidence tampering. The really big problem is that Microsoft didn't have a spreadsheet program until after (or at least VERY close to) Killian's death. Microsoft Word didn't appear until around 1983. Most likely these documents were made by someone who wasn't alive during the time Killian was alive. -- "The Democrats are all over this. Democratic strategists feel John Kerry's war record means he can beat Bush. They say when it comes down to it, voters will always vote for a war hero over someone who tried to get out of the war. I'll be sure to mention that to Bob Dole when I see him." -- Jay Leno |
MSH,
FWIW: In the news today the guy's wife is claiming that the Bush Military Records ?documents? that are attributed to her dead husband appear to be "FAKES". * His widow, Marjorie Connell, told ABC News Radio: "The wording in these documents is very suspect to me. I just can't believe these are his words." * "Col Killian's son, Gary Killian, who also served in the National Guard, said he doubted his father would have written an unsigned memo which said there was pressure to "sugar coat" Mr Bush's performance review. * Rufus Martin, the personnel chief in Col Killian's unit at the time also said he believed the documents are fake. "They looked to me like forgeries. I don't think Killian would do that, and I knew him for 17 years," he said. * Independent document examiner Sandra Ramsey Lines said the memos appeared to have been written on a computer with Microsoft Word software. * Ms Lines, a document expert and fellow of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences, highlighted a small superscript "th" in the words "111th Fighter Interceptor Squadron". She said such an effect was created automatically with Microsoft Word. "I'm virtually certain these were computer generated," she said. * Bill Flynn, one of US's top authorities on document authentication, added: "These documents do not appear to have been the result of technology that was available in 1972 and 1973."

Actually, proportional fonts were available in the 30's - but they weren't common. But the documents in question aren't just proportional, they're kerned, and they have superscripts with fractional height letters. That's not a typewriter or vintage word processor. It's typeset. Someone said he keyed in one of the documents in Microsoft Word, printed it out, scanned it in as a graphic and superimposed it on top of the same document from CBS, and they lined up exactly. Horizontally and vertically. This means the default Microsoft Word kerning and line spacing rules with the default font are identical to the ones used to prepare the document. For every letter pair, in every line. That's incredible. But an easy way to get a very strong indication of the validity of the documents is to get other memos from the same guy that are known to be real, from the same time frame, and see what they look like. My guess is they'll look pretty crude compared to the questioned documents. http://www-1.ibm.com/ibm/history/history/year_1941.html A web of unashamed lies is unraveling at a very opportune moment.
