screenshot of the font rendering in 7.1

In 7.1RC2 the quality of the font rendering is worse than in 7.0.1 

I use the Consolas font under Windows7 64bit, JDK 1.6

In 7.0.1 characters shown in the editor are very focused, whereas in 7.1RC2 all characters look a bit blurry and the dot on the i is not centered above the character itself. 

See the screenshots.

Comment 2 tkellerer 2011-12-05 18:16:39 UTC
Forgot to mention that the font display was fine with RC1
Comment 3 Marian Mirilovic 2011-12-06 08:16:37 UTC
tkeller, 
could you please also test latest FCS build ? 
http://bits.netbeans.org/7.1/nykwml/fcs/2011-12-05_11-21-34

It contains fix of issue 205917
Comment 4 tkellerer 2011-12-06 08:54:49 UTC
It's fine with the FCS.

This can be closed
Comment 5 Miloslav Metelka 2011-12-06 10:21:59 UTC
So this is likely another symptom of issue 205917. Closing as dup.
