Crossword Genius

Fine print is very attractive (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fetching

'very attractive' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'fine print' is the wordplay.
'fine' becomes 'f' (abbreviation).
'print' becomes 'etching' (etching is a kind of print).
'f'+'etching'='FETCHING'

'is' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for fetching that I've seen before include "Attractive; bringing" , "charming" , "collection" , "Pretty" , "Getting" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
