I just installed red hat 9.  It came bundled with mozilla 1.2.1 and everything
was working fine.  i installed mozilla 1.5 and i had problems.  I thought that
maybe I should use 1.4 the stable release.  I still have the same problem.  On
certain sites, the text is way too large.  Like 2 inches tall.  On this
reilyjeffery.com site all the text is too large.  but it remains smooth.  On teh
mozilla.org page, some text is correct size, some is large but pixwllated.  Is
this just a problem I have,or is this common? Please help.

Which exact mozilla build are you using?  What does about:buildconfig say?
The page uses pt for font-size and em for line-height. The page probably
wouldn't be giving you this trouble if em were used for both. I see no problem
on OS/2 1.4.1 or W98 1.5.
Mail from reporter:

This happens in 1.4 and 1.5.  I dont think its just a mozilla problem. 
I have this problem in other apps like open office.  I must have done
something wrong in my redhat installation.  To see the problem though I
have a screenshot up at hjttp://digitalgravy.net/monster.png

Jacob, you do realize that I asked two questions and you answered neither one,
right?  When I say "exact build", I mean "which exact binary did you download,
from where".  The about:buildconfig output is more important though.  Please do
provide that, by commenting on this bug directly instead of mailing people...
Error on my part, not a mozilla problem,  Whole system was affected by improper 
setting in system.

I truly apologize for the mistake.
