Package: ttf-bitstream-vera
Version: 1.10-3
Severity: normal
When viewing web pages in Mozilla and Galeon that use italic/emphasized
text, the 'r' character does not appear to be italicized. I use
antialiased text. However, I notice this only seems to occur when my
font size is set to 14 pixels, so this may just be a minor hinting issue
(if I understand the idea behind hinting properly).
My X configuration is a bit weird, which may be a problem. I use
Xinerama with a primary display at 1600x1200, and a secondary at
1280x1024. Here is some output from xdpyinfo:
screen #0:
dimensions: 2880x1200 pixels (593x252 millimeters)
resolution: 123x121 dots per inch
