Thanks, is that specific to gedit? I don't see any difference between those screenshots but maybe somebody with better eyes can do...
One thing you could try is to install gedit 3.8 on trusty and see if that resolves the issue, it's somewhat unlikely the issue is coming from gedit itself there ** Changed in: gedit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1290697 Title: Font rendering is broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1290697/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
