Attached file Reduced testcase
Since the checkin of bug 362682, many of the language names in bold in the URL come out as garbage. As a rule, these are the ones that appeared as missing-glyph symbols before bug 362682, so this is not exactly a regression...
Attached image Screenshot of test case
I removed the ttf-freefont package and no longer see this.
Summary: Bold characters garbled in some fonts → Bold characters garbled in some fonts from ttf-freefont
Added screen capture of this problem. I have this problem in FF 3 beta 2. To reproduce: visit http://www.bbc.co.uk/tamil/
Attachment 296977 [details] shows that it happens for Arabic too, in bold and/or italic.
And do these fonts work correctly in say gedit?
Depends on: 401988
Fixed in 401988.
