    Comic Sans font appears jagged and ugly

    A while back, the Comic Sans font began to appear jagged and ugly in Chrome and text editors such as Notepad. No other fonts appear to have any smoothing issues; only Comic Sans appeared to have visibly changed.

    While the font looks ugly when used in Chrome and text editors, when I tried typing with Comic Sans in paint.net, it appeared perfectly fine—no jagged edges. It looked just like it did elsewhere before.

    I screenshotted a comparison between Comic Sans in paint.net (how it should look) and Notepad (all ugly and jagged).

    I'd heard Windows 10 had font issues, but I haven't found anything specifically on Comic Sans looking like this. Any idea how to make the font display properly?

    Nokia E71 jagged fonts

    Just got the excellent E71. However, fonts are really jagged and the edges aren't smooth at all. Is there any fix or anything I need to download to make them more smoother.
