Comparing it to your patched F14 version, the roman typefaces look quite different, but overall I can't say I prefer one to the other. The italics, on the other hand, look much better in your version.

Personally I can't really tell the difference, but I'm guessing this is the patented hinting algorithm? If so, Fedora can't ship it, because Red Hat is a large US-based target with lots of money. However rpmfusion is available for those of us in the free world:
