The Windows system was using ClearType. Changing that setting fixed the problem. Thanks Eli. Should Emacs users always turn off use of ClearType?
These problems are not apparent with most fonts. I can only see them with some fonts if I reduce the size to 9 point, but it probably depends on screen resolution.
If so, can Emacs do it automatically?
Yes, this was my solution to Cleartype problems some time ago, but it was an unpopular one. We could add a user option.
If not, is this documented in PROBLEMS or somewhere suitable?
Eli just added it back, it had been previously removed because someone submitted some patches that was supposed to fix the problems.
