           Summary: Cyrillic Sans Bold unaligned, too high at small sizes
           Product: DejaVu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Sans
        AssignedTo: dejavu-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: proski at gnu.org


I'm using current DejaVu fonts from Subversion (days before 2.9 release). 
Cyrillic letters look pretty bad in DejaVu Sans Bold at low sizes (10 and
below).  The screenshot shows DejaVu Sans Bold at size 10 (96dpi) with RGB
subpixel rendering (which shouldn't be relevant - it just makes it easy to see
the problem on an LCD).

It's obvious that sha (ш) is lower than scha (щ), and pe (п) is lower than o
(о).  er (р) has some strange kink near in the top left corner.  It's supposed
to look exactly like Latin "p".

Furthermore, all Cyrillic capital letters are higher than the Latin
counterparts.  The small letters are bigger too, and they are also unaligned
among themselves.
