The letter 'i" is appearing as an uppercase "I" wherever a bold font is used on facebook and other websites

Reported by mohd.aq...@gmail.com, Apr 8 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/65.0.3325.181 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
https://www.facebook.com/

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Login to Facebook
2. Look for the faulty letter "i" displayed anywhere in bold/links

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
I have underlined all the faulty i's that are appearing in my Chrome Web Browser when I log into my Facebook account. This problem does not occur on Firefox or Edge.

My text size is medium (default) and page zoom is 100%.

Does it occur on multiple sites: N/A

Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 65.0.3325.181  Channel: stable

Please tell me how to fix this exceptionally annoying font rendering by Chrome.

mohd.aqdas@ Thanks for the issue.

Tested this issue on Windows 10 and Mac OS 10.12.6 on the reported version 65.0.3325.181 and the latest Canary 67.0.3393.0 and unable to reproduce the issue.
On logging into facebook, cannot observe the letter 'i' in uppercase in the facebook feed.

Attached is the screen shot for reference.

Request you to retry the issue on a new chrome profile without any flags/extensions and update the thread with the observations.

Thanks..
