Font rendering issue on macOS - cut off characters

Should I understand 10.15.4 is the only version of macOS you've tried ?
Not some earlier version of Catalina for example ?

Folks *mostly* use retina so it is possible that if it is somewhat 
recently introduced it is specific to non-retina.

As to the cause ? I can only speculate. Rounding error in the bitmap size ?
Being over-written by the next glyph (d) - possibly due to some rounding 
issue again ?

If you display just "ao" does it all render ?
That might point to being over-written.

As an example, if I create a `Label` with the default font and the text “aod”, then the “o” character looks like a “c”. The right side of the character is shaved off. Anyone know what is causing this and how to fix it?
