Title:
  wrong font rendering in java application

Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  java application (client to scrabble online game from
  www.scrabbleonline.sk site) looks differently in windows and in
  ubuntu. in ubuntu its unplayable because of that (... in some content,
  lettersare higher so Ŕ and R look the same etc.).

  before i took it as fact, but in 10.10 i played with font
  configuration and set fonts exactly as it is in windows. result is
  that this time game is playable, but still looks different. even if
  font is the same (taken from sun java package or copied from windows
  java installation)

  i understand that font rendering is different library in windows and
  in linux, but i don't believe its ok that fonts are rendered with
  different width and height....
