Had to play with this.
I got fed up with all the speculation.
I took one of the .pdf memos off the CBS website and selected a phrase with both kerning and superscripts.
Using Word 2003, with Times Roman 12pt font, I typed out the phrase and printed the phrase to a .pdf document.
I then used Adobe Photoshop to open both documents, and created a single document with my Word version in a separate layer with a transparent background. I had to rotate my version about a degree to match the rotation of the CBS document.
Finally, I overlaid the corresponding text. Below is an animated .gif file I created to illustrate the degree of match between the supposed 1972 document and a Sept 10 2004 version. The last part of the loop has several iterations of the overlay turned visible and invisible, and I trimmed everything down to make the file small enough to email.
Judge for yourself.
