Are you aware of a possible bug in version 3.6.23? In the browser, for example, "two/" appears with the slash through the "o". Is this a known bug?

When the same text is view in another browsers it appears correctly as "two/".

I've checked, and the same problem appears in Firefox on another computer.

The two answers received so far have not provided an answer: is this a known bug in Firefox?

Thank you.

You are on a Mac and that is a kerning problem. Don't you see the same problem in other applications if you choose the same font, font-weight and font-size.

I only find one other kerning question here -- it is marked unsolved. I find it strange that Firefox got involved with this at all rather than leaving such things to the operating system and font metrics.

Does the problem go away with "command+0" (zero) which resets zoom level to normal. If you mess with the font sizes in your preferences because you want larger print that would have the same effect.


Also found this one recently reported for Firefox 7 in ubuntu 11.04 which appears much worse. If it involves Firefox and specific operating systems it becomes a lot harder to diagnose who or what is responsible.

Thanks for responding.

"You are on a Mac and that is a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerning kerning problem. Don't you see the same problem in other applications if you choose the same font, font-weight and font-size."

No.

"Does the problem go away with "command+0" (zero) which resets zoom level to normal."

No.

As I've said before, this problem is only visible in Firefox. It doesn't occur in other browsers. Is it a bug?

How can the problem be solved?

Thanks

That can be caused by using a font like Palatino that supports ligatures like o/.

You can try to set a different (system) font to see if that helps.

An old forum thread about this issue is gone unfortunately.
