which test do you have in mind? Editing tests or in general? I currently
attempt to understand TextItertator in WebCore/editing.

Yes, and this can have at least two reasons:
  - We don't use the right fonts (e.g. you need the webkit test fonts from the
Nokia/Qt Software site), DRT should add them using fontconfig.. same as the Qt
version of DumpRenderTree

  - We don't set the DPI to 72 for the tests.

Right, I will have to ask Mark to do the change.
