If you choose "Sans, 9pt" as your Application Font using the Font Preference, certain letters are the wrong vertical height. After selecting that font, go to a site in Epiphany and look at the X's, M's, and D's in your location bar, tabs, and sometimes in the actual body of the site. For instance: http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/11/23/hunters.killed/index.html Look at the lowercase "x". It is much taller than the other letters. Must look in the location textarea though for a guaranteed confirmation of the problem.
I'm assuming that this isn't a problem with the font files themselves but with the font rendering pipeline (freetype, Xft, Pango, etc.) Adding Owen Taylor for comment.
Sans 9 works fine for me. Reassigning to epiphany for comment.
Does it work in Firefox and mozilla?
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
Closing per lack of response to previous request for information. This bug was originally filed against a much earlier version of Fedora Core, and significant changes have taken place since the last version for which this bug is confirmed. Note that FC3 and FC4 are supported by Fedora Legacy for security fixes only. Please install a still supported version and retest. If it still occurs on FC5 or FC6, please reopen and assign to the correct version. Otherwise, if this a security issue, please change the product to Fedora Legacy. Thanks, and we are sorry that we did not get to this bug earlier.
