What I do in such a case is opening the link with the konqueror context 
menu option "open with..." and manually entering kuickshow (or the 
like). Then positioning both windows vertically. Pushing some "+" keys 
in both windows (magnify) let the rendering differences appear more 
obvious. Since both are the same font, one could have the impression, 
they're different, but it documents the huge differences of freetype 
2.1.9 and 2.1.10 font rendering. 

Now you can imagine, that simply using a bigger font doesn't make any 
sense at all, since it results in totally different results..
