    Hey forum,
    So I've had this problem for a while, and I've finally given up. I have a sony vaio s15 2012, running windows 8 x64.
    I have weird Anti-Aliasing for several fonts, including the font used in vBulletin 4.2 apparently. Here's what it looks like:

    Note the upper stroke of the D. It's like Chrome just gives up trying to smooth the font halfway through.
    It does this on every browser I've tried, including firefox and internet explorer.

    Does anyone know of a fix? It's a small but irritating enough problem as to where I don't want to use websites that use this font.
