The JDK API documentation pages will be using DejaVu font. A sample build, using the DejaVu fonts, can be found at http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpatel/docs/dejaVu/api/. Non-JDK API documentation pages that are generated by the user of the javadoc tool will be using non-DejaVu fonts as specified in the stylesheet.css file. A sample build can be found at http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpatel/docs/api/.

Realizing you can't please everyone ... how can I tell if I am using the 
intended fonts or a fallback? To me this looks awful compared to 
existing JDK 7 docs. The font is blurry when larger/bold. The heading 
font (for Parameters, Returns etc) seems to be smaller than the font 
that follows it.

Thanks,
David
