This is a known problem, see bug #15785. Unfortunately, no fix
is known.

I use the Microsoft "Core fonts" on Mandriva Linux 2009.1 RC2 with Freetype version 2.3.9, and I use the font configuration files from http://www.sharpfonts.com, in order to display the Microsoft fonts without antialiasing. I attached these font configuration files to this bug report.

With this configuration I get a broken rendering of the digit "7" with the 10 pt version of the Verdana font. The lowest part of the digit is missing. I attached a screenshot to this bug report, showing the broken rendering.

Thank you for looking into this.
