My settings already include antialiasing and hinting (with medium level). The only difference I see is that in your configuration autohint is true across all fonts (not in mine). I enabled it for a few fonts only, since it's recommended not to use it for all:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Font_Configuration#Auto...

> The Autohinter attempts to do automatic hinting and disregards any existing hinting information. Originally it was the default because TrueType2 fonts were patent-protected but now that these patents have expired there's very little reason to use it. It does work better with fonts that have broken or no hinting information but it will be strongly sub-optimal for fonts with good hinting information. Generally common fonts are of the later kind so autohinter will not be useful.

Anyway, I don't think it's related to the shifted letter "i".

By the way, how does fontconfig translate to the Web fonts? Is there any way to affect them through it on the individual basis and not with global configuration?
