Some issues noticesed:

* In the right picture some single vertical lines take several pixels while
similar lines in other letters (or other parts of the same letter like in
Russian ш in the word шрифтов or the П letter) occupy 1 pixel. It is incorrect
that one vertical line in П is thicker than the other.
This unevenness creates an effect of blots spread through the text. 

* Due to subpixel smoothing this also creates an "rainbow" effect with colorful
(reddish) play while the text in the text in the left window looks evenly black
(in the both examples the subpixel smoothing is on).

* Some thick letters in the right window fuse such as letters "ым" in the word
"лицензированными".

* The broken hinting also makes the lower part of the "в" letter to appear
smaller than the upper part (look at the word "шрифтов"). This is incorrect
behavior.
