Google Chrome version 7.0.517.44 in my Fedora 13 box renders fonts in a funny way even after the instalation of the windows fonts.
Fixed the problem creating the file ~/.fonts.conf with the following xml code:
<match target="font"> <edit name="autohint" mode="assign"> <bool>true</bool> </edit> <edit name="hinting" mode="assign"> <bool>true</bool> </edit> <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle"> <const>hintslight</const> </edit> </match>
