           Summary: REGESSION: Font rendering looks worse.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 526+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh Intel
               URL: http://madebysofa.com
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: juhagman at abo.fi


WebKit Nightly and Safari 3.1.1 are rendering the text on page differently. 

When not using sub pixel anti-aliasing (selected from System Prefs >
Appearance) the difference is quite subtle, Nightly is a tad more edgy and has
lighter color (or bigger weight).

When the system wide setting for sub pixel anti-aliasing is enabled WebKit uses
it, but Safari 3.1.1 does not. The rendering of Webkit is almost illegible and
very heavy.
