I see. Yes it looks nicer

I see the difference.
Thanks for the pic. I wanted to ask someone here to produce something like that but didn't want to bother anyone.
[EDIT] However, I have just made a quick trial:
Except "f" the rest os the letters looks OK

although not as good as true italics. In your example the difference is a lot more noticeable. Maybe it depends on base font and that's why I don't use Swiss because Times fonts present synthesised italics a lot better.
