HIDEOUS 'stencil' font! No way.
I spent weeks looking at backlit keycaps, and as far as double-shot PBT goes, there is only one decent (not great) choice:

I bought those, and while the "shine through" isn't flawless, at least the font can be looked at without retina damage.

gak1234because of how molding works, you'll have to go for either "stencil", or dark spots where the stencil part would have been.
(you can see the effect on the low profile planck drop)
Unless some lighttools wizards simulates a design that miraculously shines through evenly.
I personally prefer this for the time being. Though I do want them front facing on black pbt..

gak1234Agreed! Cant stand that stencil font. I have the K-Type which uses Tai-Hao PBT backlit keys (NOT stencil). I'm looking for a similar key for a separate numpad. I found these on Tai-Hao's website, which may be the K-Type keys, but can't seen to find them at any other store besides the Tai-Hao store.
