Fonts displayed differently after 10.0 upgrade (esp Impact font)
Hey all,
After upgrading to Firefox 10.0.2, I've noticed that fonts on websites look SUBSTANTIALLY different.
Even Impact, a fairly normal font, looks larger and more squished than usual. This was NOT the case in version 7, which I used to have.
Here is a screenshot of Impact in 10.0.2: http://twitpic.com/8p7jrx/full
Here is a screenshot of it in FF 7: http://twitpic.com/8p7kmn/full

Try to disable hardware acceleration.
- Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You can do a check for corrupted and duplicate fonts and other font issues:
- http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/multipleappsquit.html - Font Book 2.0 Help: Checking for damaged fonts
- http://www.creativetechs.com/iq/garbled_fonts_troubleshooting_guide.html
You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).
