[I use verdana.ttf version 2.10 from Win98 for my tests, but I don't
think that kerning has changed for basic ASCII characters in newer
versions, given the professional quality of Microsoft's fonts.]

Where's the problem?  In the string `Adbvej' there is no kerning
except between the `v' and `e', and this value is so small that it
noticeable only at bigger sizes (at 72dpi you need a size of 58pt).

For me the png image looks just fine.
