Hey guys, I've been facing the same problem for a little while and I know when it started doing it.
I was trying to get the old newsprint plug-in by installing an older version of Gimp following a step-by-step , and then re-installing the new one, and it's when it started doing this.
Everytime I set the text as justified, it becomes all randomly spaced as soon I start a new paragraph in the same text box (the first paragraph is always perfect), and it's worse and worse everytime I make a new paragraph.
When I open and old file where everything worked, it messes up the whole text block as soon as I click on it to edit it. WHile it worked just fine in the past.
The solution I'm using is making a new text calc for each paragraph, which is not great to space everything evenly and requires a lot of editing time when I want to make a single change to the font size.
I am using GIMP 2.10.32 (revision 1)
From my downloads history, it looks like I installed GIMP 2.10.12 to get the Newsprint plug-in, but I have no idea what previous version of Gimp I had before that. This previous version did not have this problem. Is there any way to locate a trace of that on my pc (windows)?

[Just a note on the first problem in the first post of this topic. It is still happening to me (and thank you for your help last time!), but I've noticed that it only happens when I use italic. If the word in italic is at the far right of the box, it's going to get cut a little bit. If it's on the left side, it pushes the whole text box on the right and each line gets cut off.]
