I too have different font rendering (in my case, hinting) in Firefox+Thunderbird than in every other Ubuntu app, and no-one has ever figured out why.
Anyway, as David implied, this is not a problem with the Ubuntu font, since the font doesn't do underlining. It's more likely to be a problem with Pango. ** Project changed: ubuntu-font-family => pango1.0 (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: pango1.0 (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Confirmed ** Changed in: pango1.0 (Ubuntu) Milestone: 1.00 => None -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pango1.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/674920 Title: Hinting: menu underline too thick in Firefox Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Invalid Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Invalid Status in pango1.0 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The underline bellow accelerator characters in Firefox and Thunderbird menus and pop-ups are very thick when using the Ubuntu font (see attached screenshot).
