Description Chris Petersen 2006-09-25 12:16:42 PDT
* SUMMARY
With TOT webkit r-16553, I noticed the default font used at http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/  is different when compared to stock Safari or even Mac Firefox 1.5.0.7. The CSS rule on this page is specifying {font: 13px 'Helvetica Neue';} which I assumed r-16553 was using. However, r-16553 appears to be using a different font style called "Helvetica Neue UltraLight" instead. 


* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. With TOT webkit r-16553 under 10.4.7 , open reduced test case "apple_downloads.html"
2. Notice how the font is rendered (styling). Now , open this test case in  stock Safari or Mac Firefox 1.5.0.6 on this same machine for a comparison.
3. Now launch Apple's  FontBook app. Click on All Fonts. Find "Helvetica Neue" in the list.
4. Click on "Helvetica Neue UltraLight" and verify this is the same font being used by TOT webkit r-16553.

* RESULTS
TOT webkit r-16553 should render the page with the specified font but doesn't.

* REGRESSION
Yes. This does appear to work in stock Safari under 10.4.7.

I can't seem to reproduce this with current ToT.  The rendering of the test case appears identical with WebKit 418.9.1 and ToT.

Doesn't look the same on my machine.

We really need to address this issue since can affect other third party webkit applications when running with TOT webkit frameworks.
