With that said I quickly tried loading my very simple Web Service Tester
Java application in my Ubuntu Linux VMWare session and did find a
difference. In the following image notice the "Content-type" field
label
gets cut off on the linux interface but NOT in Windows. Jeeeeuunk!
Guessing it has to do with the render engine implemented on each OS that
the
JRE is calling.

This may actually be as simple as different fonts available on the
different systems. Adding the MS core fonts to my Linux system can make a
_really_ big difference to cross-platform things. For example, not having
MS fonts available has caused some really ugly formatting when opening
Office docs with OpenOffice.

If you are interested in installing these fonts, I think you should be
able to 'apt-get install msttcorefonts'.
