I am new various keycaps that are out there but have been using a mech keyboard for a while. I wanted to buy a set of white PBT keycaps, but there are versions that say white on white such as this
http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=139
. I assume the lettering is white, but are the lettering printed on or what is it? Anyone know how durable this is? Thanks for your help.

That's what I thought at first, but they also carry a separate white blank version.

I can't really tell from the description or the example image there, but my guess is that they're engraved.
