<pre>Description:
This graphic glitch happens mostly with zoom factors multiple of 100%. Using
serif font like Times New Roman, Liberation Serif et al., I see a little space
after many characters, in particular after the lowercase m. Setting another
zoom factor, like 103%, seems to reduce the effect of this bug. I don't see
this behaviour in other office apps, like Microsoft Word, that render font
correctly. Also, I've seen this glitch under Windows, Linux and Mac OS.
Enabling or disabling OpenGL doesn't make any difference.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set zoom at a multiple of 100%
2. Write some text in Times New Roman (or other serif font) and see how it
appears
3. Set zoom at another value and note the difference
Actual Results:
Wrong font rendering, as described
Expected Results:
Better font rendering
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
