From: Reuben Thomas <rrt <at> sc3d.org> To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: 24.3; Odd vertical height of some glyphs in certain fonts Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2013 09:15:40 +0100
If I set variable-pitch-face to Droid Serif, the right arrow → is much taller than most other glyphs, effectively forcing extra space after lines containing it. In DejaVu Serif, this does not happen. This effect is visible with several other fonts as well: with Calibri, it does not happen, whereas with Cambria it does, as well as with Verdana, Ubuntu and Georgia. In LibreOffice and GEdit this problem does not occur.
