the m for small alphabet and the B U and V seem to cause the
greatest problem when trying to distinguish characters.

The mono version shows the greatest spacing error problems.

The combination of characters mVaBcUtBm is highly overlapped.
Hmmm.  I don't notice this.  I'm viewing this message in mutt running
in a gnome-terminal using DejaVu Sans Mono Book 11.

Is it possible that other font settings (dpi, smoothing, hinting, or
subpixel order) may be the cause of this?

I'd be happy to send you a screen shot and my font settings if you
think it might help narrow down any possible bugs in fontconfig or in
the DejaVu fonts.

Yes Jim, please post you font settings and a screenshot of the problem
so it can all be traced (and hopefully resolved)

Regards,



I opened up the below bug report with screenshots.

The m and the V look offset incorrectly to me the most.
