I'm running Sid, and after some recent updates (which introduced several problems, most of which I've now ironed out), I've noticed that some of my emails (read in Chromium via Google Mail) and a few web pages have ugly, hard-to-read text. I've since discovered that I can Ctrl-Plus or Ctrl-Minus to bump the text/page zoom one notch one way or the other and the font clears up.
How do I find a fix? I've used Chromium's right-click/Inspect feature to see fonts mentioned (Arial & Tahoma & Lucinda Grande & Sans Serif(?) come to mind), which I didn't see on my system using either GWaterfall or Font Manager, so I installed a few font packages, which doesn't seem to have helped, but which did provide me with fonts with at least similar names in some cases. I suspect I'm bouncing in the general area of the problem's solution, but not quite there. It's a nuisance, but not a huge deal, as the font is somewhat readable, and the zoom makes it more so, but it would be nice to get fixed. Any suggestions?
