I don't know but it is precisely what I will investigate. IMHO, we have 2 freedom degrees here : we can't prevent all the rendering difference, especially if antialiasing happens, but : 1. we can see if we can change the chars horizontal spacing or more precisely if something is just wrong right now with the spacing with our xft code. 2. we may propose to the user a way to disable this antialiased rendering. When I use firefox, I don't see any antialiased font rendering in the GUI interface, maybe it would be a good idea to let the user choose ?
