Your bitmapped fonts aren't installed correctly.  Take the latest
version of Font/DA mover.  Copy the bitmap fonts in question to a file,
and delete them from your System.  Copy them back from the file to your
System.  The Font/DA mover will rebuild the spacing information so that
the fonts will work correctly with MacDraw II (and other programs, as
well.)
