Hello list,
I have what is probably a simple configuration failure on my part, but i
figure the list is a good place to start:
When generating WMS tiles from GEOServer and presenting them via a SLD
style, the fonts displayed look... bad. I've attached some links to a side
by side comparison that I did to the font being rendered via the WMS+SLD
solution, and one rendered via a geojson output from geoserver, displayed
as an openlayers vector layer (therefore using browser svg technology for
the rendering). I would expect both to look similar (if anything, the
advantage given to the server-based geoserver/wms solution, but that does
not seem to be the result.
Side by side comparison:

WMS+SLD only http://cwg.jbjonesjr.com/notes/geoserver-tile-text.jpg
GEOJSON + Openlayers + Firefox 13 + SVG:

You can clearly see the difference between the Client rendered fonts and
the server rendered fonts.
Geoserver specifics:
OS: Ubuntu 8.11
Kernel: 3.0.0-12
JVM: Sun Microsystems Inc.: 1.6.0_23 (OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM)
Native JAI/ImageIO : true
DataStore: PostGIS
Fonts: Arial Bold is listed as an available font
I have not delved into any of the geoserver logs yet to look for anything
associated with this issue. Maybe it's an openjdk image rendering problem,
but figured I'd start here.
Thanks for the help
