Single letter shifts text's y-axis
#5

Can't tell if it's a problem with the font (that could try to enforce some overlap between successive lines like on old typewriters) or with Gimp that makes a wrong assumption. In any case all characters line up correctly on the baseline, the only impact is the position of the text layer.

Oh? That's kinda interesting.
Is there anyway to sort of "fix" this or is this just something I have to work with?
