Bug: TWiki Draw Mozilla/Explorer Incompatibility

Text is rendered differently in TWikiDrawPlugin between IE/Win2K and Mozilla/Linux.

The observed difference is specifically between Mozilla1.0.1 on Linux and IE6.0 on Win2K.

Mozilla1.5 on Win2K seems to render the same as IE6.0 on Win2K.

Test case

See included TWikiDrawPlugin Pictures

Follow up

This is nothing to do with TWikiDrawPlugin per se, but is a function of the Java implementation / Java plugin / browser / platform / installed fonts, none of which are controllable. "Write once, run anywhere" isn't quite as true as we might wish.....

I rejected the bug since the bug tracking in Codev is used just for the kernel (core code of TWiki).
