Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here. Has there been any further development on the patch? Is there an upstream bug for this issue? Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better! ** Changed in: abiword (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: abiword (Ubuntu) Status: New = Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/672263 Title: Letters in and near selection move by +-1 pixel -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

You can also see that the v is one pixel rightwards in the second image. Not every letter moves equally, it seems.Perhaps it's a rounding error for characters that are a non-integral number of pixels wide? The font used was Times New Roman, 12 point.
