After some debugging, I would say that this is *not* a Qt issue. Though there is no “Courier New” font in my system, FontConfig considers it as an alias for “Liberation Mono” font, using the rule defined in /etc/fonts/conf.d/30-metric-aliases.conf.

If I create a QFont with family “Courier New” and apply it to a widget (i.e. QTextEdit), it will work properly. Even more, if I create an HTML block with “font-family: 'Courier New'” style, QtWebKit *will render it properly*.

So, I believe it is a bug in QtWebKit. To be precise, QtWebKit is able to render that font properly (as we can see in the web inspector), but doesn’t do that.
