Coming from a Stripping background and being brought up in trade shops I ALWAYS overprinted my black text up to about 28-32 pt size depending on whether it was a fine serif font or a bold san serif. As the type gets bigger and the eye can actually see a difference in the ink color I wouldn't worry about over printing black text that was under 24 point in size.

And if you tell me you can see the difference, I bet you hunt for mice in the dark at 2,000 yards also :wink:
