Elswyth, the strange thing is that when I first saw the comparison in your initial post, my first thought was that the 2.8.1 Georgia was narrower than the 3.15.1 version. I left with the impression that they'd reduced the x-height in 3.15.1. I'm not very proficient with typography except from whatever knowledge I've gleaned from wikipedia, so I might be explaining it wrong technically. Personally I preferred the 2.8.1 version.

But now that I see your latest screenshots, I have the exact opposite impression. The animation makes it apparent to me that I prefer the newer font that seems bolder and slightly taller.
