Public bug reported:

Chromium has a font rendering problem on www.aftenposten.no

The width of the characters is wrong on the initial rendering. It is
possible that it is the spacing between the characters that is wrong.
Scrolling the page or a mouseover will give a correct rendering.

Small fonts are not affected, but large fonts are affected most of the
time. The problem is fully reproducable. Also, it seems to be associated
with the pages of aftenposten.no.

A screenshot is attached: BADimage.xcf

The same problem is also present in Firefox.
This has been a problem since at least Ubuntu 1104 and corresponding versions 
of Chromium and Firefox.
I've not observed the problem in any other context.

Ubuntu version 12.04 LTS, fully updated as per june 5.

I currently use Chromium 18.0.1025.151 (Developer Build 130497 Linux) Ubuntu 
12.04
chromium-browser 18.0.1025.151~r130497-0ubuntu1

The PC is a Samsung N145 plus netbook. I've also seen the problem on an
ASUS Eee R101.
