[MiKTeX] \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} or not

[Rolf H. <RolfHermann@GMX.net>]

Dear MiKTeX users,

I use the following preable:

---
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}

\usepackage[ansinew]{inputenc}
\usepackage{ngerman}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
---

And the result with pdfLaTeX is a pdf-file which contains the following Ty=
pe-1-fonts: SFRM1728, SFRM1200, SFRM1000, SFCC1000, SFTI1000.

If I remove "\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}" from the preable, the resulting pdf=
-file (which is nearly half of the size compaired to the former one) conta=
ins the following Type-1-fonts: CMR17, CMR12, CMR10, CMSCS10, CMTI10.

But concerning the quality of the output I can't see any difference. So: W=
hat is the difference?, I would like to ask you, please.


Greetings,

Rolf
