GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 99057
Italics tag rendered on bias if italics font is not available

I use Comic Sans MS font for all sans fonts but it only comes in regular an d bold flavors. In galeon 1.3.0, text that should be printed in italics are printed on a ~30 deg bias, running up left to right. Apparently, italics were ignored if not available in earlier galeon versions. For example: Page: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=galeon&version=1.3.0&op_sys=Linux&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=RESOLVED&email1=&emailtype1=substring&emailassigned_to1=1&email2=&emailtype2=substring&emailreporter2=1&changedin=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&short_desc=&short_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&long_desc_type=substring&bug_file_loc=&bug_file_loc_type=substring&status_whiteboard=&status_whiteboard_type=substring&keywords=&keywords_type=anywords&op_sys_details=&op_sys_details_type=substring&version_details=&version_details_type=substring&cmdtype=doit&newqueryname=&order=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time&form_name=query source: <CENTER> <B>Tue Nov 19 18:49:33 EST 2002</B><HR><A HREF=quips.cgi><I>Think.

It only offers a warning at the moment, but without these installed, it will not build the libglade-convert script.</p> <p>Earlier versions of GARNOME used Havoc Pennington's <i>metacity</i> (metacity printed at 30 deg) (which is pronounced like opacity, according to Havoc) window manager by default, but for the moment, it's just built as part of the gnome-desktop meta garball. You can change to it within your GNOME 2.0 session like this:</p>
If this is really a bug its in mozilla
