Re: poor font rendering in ffox on f18
Allegedly, on or about 16 March 2014, Mike Wright sent:
On Chrome it displays perfectly (or falls back to sans-serif???) but
on firefox it is extremely difficult to read. Using firebug I can
force it to use sans-serif, which does display nicely.
Here's the link to a screen capture:

that shows the leading vertical edges of n,u,h,p don't display; x is
also broken.
That looks like trying to display a font using lines less than one pixel
wide, and only the anti-aliasing being visible.
Do you have your screen DPI set correctly? You're not using a faked up
DPI to change font sizing, like some people do. That's the sort of
problem I'd expect to see from doing stunts like that.
