I've noticed this before on 1.0 cubes, but it persists (annoyingly) on
my 2.0 slab: Why are there large gaps between letters in a word when
there should be?  For example, if you look up the definition of "kern"
in Digital Webster and have the point size set to 20, then the word
"typeset" has a gap that makes it look like "ty peset" (well...almost).
This happens with other point sizes (e.g. 12) as well.

Is there a fix for this?  Thanks!
