     FF is wrong - I know, I had this same problem. What I did was load the
font in question into FED, make sure it was fixed_width (which it was already),
save it again (didn't bother changing the name), then ran FixFonts on it.
FF worked like a charm after that with it.
     C-A: does anybody know why FF does this?
                                                     - R'ykandar.
