From the bug report: The issue appears when using ttf-wqy-microhei in Chromium (and possibly other programs). See https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=233851 for the original report against Chromium. The issue itself is that the version of ttf-wqy-microhei in the repository was created with an old version of FontForge which created incorrect advanceWidths in the htmx tables of this font. As a result many Korean glyphs have tiny advance withs (1/8 of what they should be) and so stack on top of each other when linear metrics are requested and used. Many thanks to Chromium developer Ben Wagner (Bungeman) for his excellent and meticulous work in investigating the issue and in creating a patched version of wqy-microhei.ttc to fix the issue. (Closes: #714641; LP: #1258520) Also thanks to upstream author Qianqian Fang for giving us the go-ahead to use Bungeman's version, and will investigate an upstream update if he can find the time.
