[Bug 1171674] Re: Chromium renders Korean text (Hangul) illegibly

 

When a page is affected, all Hangul on that page renders improperly
(except text-as-images, which is fine of course). I think you're right
about fonts; pages that use NanumGothic seem to be immune, whereas when
the text is rendered using DejaVu Sans, the problem occurs.

Other affected sites:

http://2013chungju.org/
http://www.archives.go.kr/next/main.do
http://dev.naver.com/projects/nanumfont
and any page source viewed through the built-in source viewer

Not affected:

http://www.kocis.go.kr/main.do
http://hangeul.naver.com/index.nhn

This is a clean install of Raring, with only the standard fonts
installed.
