Chrome's default sans-serif on this class of host is Liberation Sans, not DejaVu (measured: sans-serif == Arial == Helvetica == Liberation width, DejaVu ~12% wider). Forcing DejaVu drifted all text wider and shifted every line. Bundle Liberation Sans/Serif/Mono (DejaVu kept as glyph fallback), default to Liberation Sans, and resolve font-family to the right generic (monospace/code -> Mono, serif -> Serif, else -> Sans). A controlled text page drops from ~15-20% to 3.5% pixel mismatch and every line lands within 1px of Chrome.
