Can you give an example on where this happens? At first glance I do not see it anywhere...

Henk just showed it to me in the Browse bar. It seems to me that the anti-aliassing that Microsoft applies to this character (pipe) in this font is a bit on the light side. Not under our control, sorry.

Hi Theo and Henk, thanks for making this effect clear. As I said, it's confusing as I usually work on my (good old) XP box where this doesn't happen; Uli
