ubuntu - @font-face: Why does this single font letter look different on Windows? -


i've created webfont set using fontsquirrel.com font called interface dalton maag. lowercase letter s looks different , larger other letters. happens on windows , on multiple browsers (tested on chrome 53, safari 5.1, internet explorer 11, firefox 49) .

larger letter s on windows (notice lowercase s letters on jessica , clements)

the issue goes away if zoom browser make fonts larger: enter image description here

but doesn't happen on ubuntu (chrome , firefox)

does not happen on ubuntu

is issue windows font rendering? or "font hinting" issue? how can fix this?

this "x-height snapping" on truetype (tt) hinting options. had download ttfautohint , manually adjust configurations , hint font file myself before generating derivatives through fontsquirrel.com leaving tt hinting options "keep existing", instead of letting fontsquirrel handle hinting (either using fontsquirrel hinting or ttfautohint hinting)

i had set "x-height snapping exceptions" -20 doesn't use "snapping" on sizes less 20ppem. produced correct height letter s @ small font sizes. here's config: ttfautohint config

the difference visible on windows font preview when don't set x-height snapping exception:

and when set -20:
