I am President of my local Probus Club, and 2 years ago we had a talk by the gentleman who created the ANPR system - it can read anything you throw at it, so all this fuss about fonts and spacing is absolute rubbish. I would also add that if you ask a witness if they remember a number plate, the likelihood is that the ones made to spell something, even incorrectly spaced or fonted, are those which get a positive response. It's all about the money, as always.
