Bug Description
With release 2.5 there are much improvements. for the normal user (eyes) we get a MUCH better font renderin with almost all fonts and application. I think thats because of the new Adobe's CFF module.
so please upgrade to the Version 2.5.x with enabled and active Adobe's CFF. You can test it with ppa:
