Hi,

I'm trying to render a web page, in QT 4.5, that uses an embedded font. Most of the time this works as expected. Unfortunately, sometimes I get really weird behaviour.

The font is rendered - apparently - off-by-one. For instance the text:

"By" woukd appear as "Cz"

Has anyone run into this before? And - more importantly - knows how to fix this?
