What do you have your DPI set to in preferences?

Comment 5

[Deniska]

96 DPI. they are equal in both cases. moreover, all font settings are equal.
I've fixed that thing by installing additional fonts (MS Font Pack) and
FreeType/2. and also arial.fon - bitmap version of arial. but anyway - it is now
so good solution

damn. you can close this bug. i've installed and deinstalled freetype/2. after
that everything went ok.
I believe - reboot fixed all fonts problems. I've installed 1.2.1 without doing
a reboot for a long time. it seems, that problem comes from that. now I can't
reproduce the bug.
guys. I'm sorry.... :)

No problem. Glad it's fixed.

Note if you installed MS fonts, you might have installed Versdana which will
change the page as well.
