I Steps: Go to http://www.vivi.ro/politica/despre.php II Issue: Notice the size of "ș" and "ț", they are disproportionate compared to the rest of the characters.Letters with diacritics should be the same size as the 'normal' ones. The reported page font is Georgia, but the same behavior is seen with the default Times New Roman font where the problem is worse. Letters with diacritics are larger than expected. III Conclusion : In fonts Georgia, Times New Roman, Courier, Geneva the characters appear larger in Chrome and Safari while they appear a little bit smaller in IE 7 and FF3. III Other Browsers: IE7: ok FF3: ok IV Nightly tested: 41018 Bug in Chromium : http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=4508

Please try to attach test cases in HTML format whenever possible - downloading and unpacking ZIP archives is a totally unnecessary annoyance. Please attach a screenshot.
The url no longer reproduces the issue, but issue is reproducible with attached reduced testcase
I'm not sure if we want to do anything here. This happens because the first font (specified) to render the page does not contain characters in question. A fallback font has a different metric. In the reduced test case, Georgia, TNR, Courier and Geneva do not cover those characters. We're doing what we're supposed to do per CSS spec.
