Has anyone else noticed that fonts in the Ajax generated area of Kartris distort in IE? A quick Google search gives a solution to develop in UTF-8 fonts? Doesn't happen in Firefox though.

I haven't seen the problems you describe... which version of IE are you using? Could you post a screenshot?

Here's the screen shots. The area of text in question is highlighted on both screen shots.

The distorted text is IE 8.

The clean text is Firefox 6.0.2

It also does the same thing with the 'Send a verification email to my address' link text within the customer account area. IE renders the text distorted but Firefox renders it normally.

I get similar in IE too. I think it is the accordion panels it happens on. It's still readable I guess, but not ideal. Will have to test in IE9 to see if MS have fixed this (on my old XP laptop at the moment so IE8 is the max available).

Usual Microsoft browser problems. They still can't get it right. Yet standards compliant browsers do it so so much better...
