With the default fonts, I see the increased vertical space as others
have. The font corruption with Calibri should probably be submitted as
a separate bug.

Bug description:
i am on Ubuntu 8.04.1, effect is the same on i386 and amd64, Package: openjdk-6-jre, Version: 6b11-2ubuntu2

Swing UI elements (lists, labels) have additional vertical space, some applets user interfaces are therefore broken with openjdk. In contrast sun-java6-jre works fine with tvbrowser and other applets. I attached a good and a bad png-image. The java program to render the example is ugly but still useable with openjdk but i think the error is shown clearly in comparison of the bad openjdk.png with the good sun sun-java.png.
