Just saw this (via Daring Fireball):
Cross-browser kerning-pairs & ligatures
And thought, “there’s gotta be an extension for that.” Well, looks like there isn’t… so I made one:
Optimize Legibility [4.64 kB]Enjoy!

Genauso einfach geht’s mit einem benutzerdefinierten Stylesheet. Einfach eine Textdatei mit folgendem Inhalt erstellen und die Datei in den Safari-Einstellungen unter Erweitert als Style-Sheet auswählen:
body { text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; }

So richtig toll ist das Ergebnis bei Webfonts manchmal jedoch nicht. Zum Test das Plugin mal aktivieren und sich dann die Überschrift des Suhrkamp-Posts auf dem Fontblog anschauen. Vor allem auf “Buchdesign” achten.

Das stimmt, Sven. Darum habe ich auch geschrieben: »… ich bin teils begeistert, teils unschlüssig.« In der obigen Abbildung habe ich das von Dir beschrieben Phänomen dargestellt. Ganz oben: Safari ohne Kerning, darunter Safari mit Kerning und ganz unten Firefox – die beste Darstellung. Meine Vermutung geht dahin, dass Typekit sein Safari-Rendering nachjustieren muss: Die Pixelsprünge und das Kerning zusammen liefern Löcher und Buchstabenberührungen. Firefox dagegen greift auf den selbst gehosteten Webfont zu (im Fall von Fontblog FF Yoga Sans), und das Ergebnis sieht ziemlich gut aus.

Bei mir zerhaut es mit optimizeLegibility in Safari die Umbrüche. Da werden plötzlich Zeilen länger als Sie eigentlich dürfen, und brechen in die nächste Spalte ein :/ (Firefox scheint auch ohne diese Zeile Ligaturen zu benutzen)
