Yes, I have attached another example with different font sizes (8,9,10). The exact weight is impossible to replicate, I tried with "light" and "normal". I think that the problem might be the lack of hinting. In my fonts.conf file I have both "hinting" and "autohinting" enabled. if I disable these options then the fonts in other applications resemble a lot the ones I am getting now with mpl. Bye.
