I like 1 & 4. Number 3 still runs the risk of being read 'the Jest'.
This is really taking me back. Back in the 1970s I was considering training as a graphic designer, and I did a 'taster' course. Part of it was 'hot lead': actually setting a page with the old moveable type-characters, the sort that Caxton and Gutenberg used. I really enjoyed it: I loved seeing how you could change the implication of a word by shifting the font you used. Now this must seem a genuinely medieval skill!
But it's good to see that something of that care to detail is still relevant today.
