           Summary: HTML view in KMail scales bitmap fonts
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.12.4
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mat at esi.com.pl


Version:           1.12.4 (using 4.3.4 (KDE 4.3.4), Gentoo)
Compiler:          i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31-rc3

I use bitmap "Console" font as a font for viewing messages in KMail (as it
looks really nice on 12 inch screen). It worked fine up until KDE 4.3.3, but
with 4.3.4 something changed and now while it works for plain text messages in
HTML messages KMail tries to scale the font and the message view looks really
bad (including "elegant" headers). I'm not really sure if it's KMail's fault as
just after first start after upgrade Konsole (where I use the same font)
displayed something that looked similar - badly scaled font, but after I
changed the font size to 12 (it was 6 before, but it worked fine as the font
was not scaled) the problem disappeared. Unfortunately changing fonts in KMail
or even setting it to use fixed width font (set to "Console", 12) doesn't fix
the HTML view problem.
