I have exactly the same issue - this font clips the descenders.

Exactly the same issue goes here, too.

Adjusted line-height trying to resolve the problem: does not work.
Forced setting height of containers of the text: does not work.
Changed font-size to a smaller one: does not work, either!

Oh, I forgot to mention that the image clip was taken from Chrome 10.0.648.18 
dev.

I just came across this myself. Chrome 9.0.597.94 under Windows XP-SP3. Love 
the font, but it's unusable like this.

Confirmed. We thought we had fixed this, but apparently not. We'll try to have 
a fix out soon.

Issue on Mac OSX, Chrome 10 and Firefox 4
Descenders are visible on normal text, BUT for a link, on "hover" state, the 
descenders are not styled appropriately.
For example, default is white text
Hover turns top part blue (correct) - but descenders only are still white 
(incorrect)

the problem seems to be related to the Font-Squirell Fontkit, as i just 
resolved the issue by downloading the font from Google Fonts and making my own 
conversion to each format necessary (WOFF, EOT, SVG..)

It works, thanks cornhust. Google font solves the problem.

Hi there, I have the exact same problem on windows 7, 64bit machine on chrome. 
any fix in the pipeline?

Strange thing was that I switched to this font a couple of weeks ago and all 
was fine, suddenly started this week!

This is still an issue - you can even see it in the Character Set examples on 
the official Google Web Font page. I assume that after 2 years there is no fix 
for this still?

The issue only seems to manifest if the font TTF is installed on the machine.  
When using JUST THE WEBFONT version, the descenders are fine.  Seems the TTF 
that can be widely downloaded is corrupt.

I'm having this issue on print from illustrator after installing the TTF on my 
computer, the descenders on low case are simply cut off. 
On web, one of my computers displays the google charcters set well using 
Firefox, but another of my computers it displays chopped descenders using 
Chrome.
Is there any fix for this?
Thanks

Sorry, Update for whomever this might help: I downloaded the font again from 
google and it seems to work on print now, so I imagine that, as someone has 
mentioned before the "font squirrel" TTF version is somewhat corrupted. Also 
this font won't display well in google chrome when you have the squirrelfont 
ttf installed on your computer.
