User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Firefox/1.0.4

The site is a news site and the content is ubdated every few minutes. However,
this conditon persists for every update.
The page prints correctly if I set both minimum text size and text size to 14.
However if I set minimum text size to 10 and text size to 14 the page is
somewhat scrambled. Like the text overlaps the edge of the coloured box, even
intrudes into adjacent text. The page works correctly in IE.
 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Set text size 14
2.set minimum text size 10
3.

Actual Results:  
Text overlaps


I have seen this bug on a few pages, sometimes very subtle.

Sorry, Its actually the other way around. Using text size 14 and minimum text
size 14 the overlap occurs as above. Setting minimum text size to 10 gets neat
display, but of course too small text for my eyes.

I have a nice new system (XP. Big screen or small makes no difference.

I have experienced the same thing with font size issues.
