Description jon.ronnenberg 2011-01-12 02:49:58 PST 
Chrome Version       : 8.0.552.224 (Official Build 68599)
URLs                 : http://gl-test.kathdreams.dk/culture.htm
Other browsers tested:
Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
     Safari 5: OK
  Firefox 3.6: OK

Steps to reproduce the problem?
1. Go to web site (http://gl-test.kathdreams.dk/culture.htm)
2. The h2 with text EXPLORE CULTURE is not visible. It's located in div.culture-cloud. Open the site in Safari or Firefox if you're having trouble finding the element.
  
  OR

1. download chrome.html and pioneerbrush-webfont.woff from here.
2. put pioneerbrush-webfont.woff in directory and name it fonts.
3. open chrome.html in Chrome

I've attached the WOFF font as it might be a problem with transforming this particular WOFF file. The files is generated at fontsquirrel.com.

What strikes me is that this works as intented in web-kit 533 (Safari 5.0) but not in web-kit 534 (Chrome 8).

Cheers, Jon.

Use URL http://gl-test.kathdreams.dk/bugs/chrome.html instead of http://gl-test.kathdreams.dk/culture.htm for a reduced test case.

I recall some other issues related to fonts not rendering when transformed. Memory hazy tho.
Comment 5 mitz 2011-01-12 15:47:14 PST 
Is this specific to the Chromium Windows port or does it also happen with the Core Graphics-based Apple Windows port?

I just updated Chrome and the bug is still there:

8.0.552.237 (Official Build 70801)

This bug has been fixed long ago. Unfortunately I don't know when but as following the timeline of comments in bug report #69342[1] on chromium, it appears fixed between late June 2011 - late February 2012.
