hi

i can see the fonts have changed in the menu and for the title

this produces bad padding inside the respective <divs>, any
browser, see attached

what was wrong with the previous font?
(sorry if i missed the discussion)

We were using incosistently helvetica and verdana as a first item in the font-family. I've made it helvetica first. On linux verdana looks bad, helvetica is fine.

I realize that now it looks bad on your platform.

How do we find a good happy compromise?


well, did we change it because of inconsitency or because of
how it looked?

the consitency _was_:

menu, breadcrumb, title:
helvetica, arial, verdana, sans-serif

nope, the menu had verdana first.

Here is the patch:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/modperl-docs/src/style.css.diff?r1=1.48&r2=1.49


body:
verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;


we could possibly try: arial, helvetica, verdana, sans-serif;

=> not good letter-spacing (;

Linux doesn't seem to have arial.

I agree though that yours helvetica looks worth than my verdana. But it probably has to do with the browser's defaults.

but verdana on my platform here has the best overall font-qualities

what about sans-serif? I'm not sure if linux has these. Folks, please help us here, this is very critical.
