Opera, Galeon, and Mozilla seem to be effected here, and the problem only seems to be hapening with Adobe fonts, and only when they are rendered from web pages. If I select "Helvetica [Adobe]" as a font for webpages, then I have the problem, but I can select the same font for the app, and it gets rendered properly. Pages are also honked if an Adobe font like Helvetica or Times is specified for font-family in a CSS (http://www.w3.org/ is an example for this, but be careful since Ariel is listed before Helvetica in the CSS). Other font families, like Bitstream Vera, work fine. I can run more tests to narrow this down more, or to figure out if it is pilot error. -- Matthew Donadio (m.p.donadio@ieee.org)
