Hi,
1. Make sure you have the proper fonts :P
2. Choose a generic font name in konqueror config, something like "Sans" and
"Monospace" instead of (for example) "Bitstream Vera Sans" and "Bitstream
Vera Sans Mono".
3. Make sure you have configured "fontconfig" so that it makes the proper
replace from "Sans" -> "Your preferred font" and so on.

At least I had that problem until I did this.
The problem seems to be with font substitution. Say for example you are
using some of the "DejaVu" fonts and you want to see a page with some
strange character wich is not in that font; that character should be taken
from another font, however Konqueror doesn't get it quite right :P

Bye!!
