Bug Description
When a font size is smaller than 12, Latin characters in TakaoGothic are not aligned correctly on screen. These characters are displayed as if they have two or more baselines.
How to reproduce the issue:
1. install the font
$ mkdir ~/.fonts
$ tar xvzf takao-fonts-
$ mv takao-fonts-
$ fc-cache -fv
2. start gedit on Ubuntu 9.10
$ dpkg -l | grep gedit
ii gedit 2.28.0-0ubuntu2 official text editor of the GNOME desktop en
ii gedit-common 2.28.0-0ubuntu2 official text editor of the GNOME desktop en
$ LANG=C gedit &
3. modify preferences
Click "Edit - Preferences - Font & Colors - Editor Font," then select "TakaoGothic, Regular, 11."
4, type some texts on the editor, e.g. "font-face-
Result:
Please check the attached image.
wrt "font-face", the position of f, n, and t are higher than o, a, c, and e.
wrt "weight", the position of w and i are higher than e, g, h, and t.
wrt "matching", the position of a and c are lower than others.
wrt "expected", the position of t (and x?) are higher than others.
Note:
- When the font size is >= 12, the issue seems not to reproduce.

I can not reproduce this bug when I set "Japanese" for system-wide setting in Language dialog (System -> Administration -> Language support).
But I changed it to "Japanese" and this problem occurs.
