The Ascii characters are too small compare to double bytes Japanese characters. I have 2 screen-shot, one is on 07-05 branch build and the other one is 06-18-08 trunk build. It seems a regression, but since there are not only one change on Linux fonts recently, it's hardly tell the exact regression day.

Actually there are two problems: 1. The Ascii characters are display too small if the string is combine single byte and double bytes characters. 2. The space between 2 rows are smaller than those builds earlier than 06-18-08 trunk build. You can see it on the screenshot that I'll attach later. This problem you can see it even in English pages, like this bug report page.

reassign to bstell we should consider to change the japanese default font face or tune up the mini font size for japanese to fix it.

I suggest that the ASCII part is correctly sized and the Japanese part is much too large. Could you try changing the Japanese font from jix-fixed to misc-fixed?

If I change Japanese font to misc-fixed, then the Japanese characters are display smaller and I think it's nicer in Netscape-Japan page. However, if I visit some other popular Japanese page, e.g.: http://www.asahi.com, http://www.yomiuri.co.jp ... etc. then the characters of news title will become really big (see attached file later) Also, on my machine, Simp. Chinese pages has same problem.

the misc-fixed has a nice 10 px font but no larger fonts so the large text gets scaled which is unreadable. Unless we know the user has a larger font I guess we should increase the min Japanese font size to make the ascii part similarly (oversized) sized to the Japanese text (sigh).
