** Attachment added: "various serif fonts at 8,9,10,10.5 and 11 pt (windows xp)"

** Description changed:

  This might seem trivial, but this has been a problem for the last
  hundred releases, and Georgia (from msttcorefonts) is a common font for
  web pages.
  
  The capital D, at 9, 10 and 10.5 point size, is anti-aliased with fuzzy
  lines on the top and bottom, see attachment.  This affects firefox and
  openoffice and probably other gnome (pango???) apps.
  
+ The problem is that the fuzziness  protrudes above and below the letter-
+ lines and is distracting.
+ 
  Compare the font rendering to windows (will attach this also if the
  comments system allows).  Shows various serif fonts at 8,9,10,10.5 and
  11 point.
