Just to add, rather than increasing all the font sizes with ctrl+, if you go into firefox preferences, content tab and choose the advanced button by font size, you can set the minimum font size at anything 12 or more and it seems to fix the problem also. Worked for me, at least, and without making

I am so glad I found this page. This was driving me crazy and 4chan was the only site where I consistently encountered this. I would see it every now and then, but very infrequently. 4chan was a definite issue pretty much on every single page. I adjusted the font size via CTRL+scrollwheel and

Yes, I can verify that it is fine with 'font-size: 14px', and I can reproduce the issue by setting 'font-size: 10px'. The plain text is fine, but the links go crazy. This also confirms the Wikipedia issue, as all the pages with the problem have the same template with the links using non-english

Tried making a blank page with: just kana, just kanji, just kana links, just kanji links and both mixed. Nothing I do causes the ghosting. Must be something else that needs to be present on the same page that effects the kana/kanji rendering. But at least we are getting closer to the cause of the

After some more playing around, it seems that I have found the cause of the bug. Setting the font size of east-asian characters to 10px, 8px or 2px causes the ghosting. Try playing around with the attachment. ** Attachment added: test.html http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15322430/test.html --
