He is using font face embedding of the 'Droid Serif'. Probably some issue with the typography conversion or with windows rendering the fonts badly (i get the weird t also in windows 7).

Seems to be an issue with the Droid font files. I'll look into it.

Looks okay on chrome 9 on ubuntu lts:

Yeah, it looks OK for me in Chromium (dev channel) & Opera as well.

As for screwness: when I try to enlarge fonts using FF 3.6 Ctrl-+, I suddently get a gray band on the right that hides half of the text.

I cannot read the default font, sorry.

I didn't notice, gray on white background is a bit hard to see.

Came in to say that his "t"s looked really weird. Chrome.

I think it is a bug in the font he's fetching.

Chrome 8.0 on Windows 7, yes.
