Bad font on any brave web page


Description of the issue:
How can this issue be reproduced?

1.open brave web browser and check the print
2.description ,looks like wot appears when printing text and you start to run out of ink

3.version79.0.3945.130

Expected result:

Brave Version( check About Brave):

Additional Information:

Unfortunately this has more to do with the font rendering in Chromium-based browsers than Brave specifically. I’ve noticed this for years.

In my experience, Firefox has, by far, the best font rendering of any Windows browser I’ve used.

To compensate, I’ve found myself using Reader View extension to help me read pages (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/reader-view/ecabifbgmdmgdllomnfinbmaellmclnh).

Hope that helps!

@dougysb,
Can you share a screenshot of what the text looks like on your end?

I am having the same problem on Windows 10-1909. I have not dug too deep into it yet, but thought I would share a picture of what this post looks like on my browser.

I tested Chrome Version 79.0.3945.130 (Official Build) (64-bit) and it looks the same as Brave Version 1.2.43 Chromium: 79.0.3945.130 (Official Build) (64-bit).

Internet Explorer 11 looks perfect.

I followed the steps in this article to adjust ClearType and it fixed my problem.

Great its exactly the same i tried on differant web sites facebook works ok

@dougysb,
To confirm, did you try what @redbeardintc had suggested or not? If so, did it resolve the issue?

If not, can you try disabling Hardware Acceleration in settings to see if this resolves the issue?

You’ll find this in Settings --> Additional Settings --> System --> Hardware Acceleration

Hi yes i did wot redbeard said and it worked first time thanks for the flow up
