Nicholas, What I see when I execute this:
pango-view --font="Ubuntu 48" --markup --text='<span fallback="false"> The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.</span>' is (all on one line): 1. 0.830 in very small text 2. something that looks like 88 on a 7-segment display 3. a space 4. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. So just to be super-clear, I don't see a ".84" in that string. I also don't see it in the text of this e-mail; what I see looks a single glyph whose strokes make 0.830 in very small letters. I had an inspiration and checked with my font view application. It tells me my Ubuntu font is: Name: Ubuntu Style: Regular Type: TrueType font Version: 0.83 Copyright: Copyright 2011 Canonical Ltd.
