weird mixed up fonts in labels

Has anybody seen this before?  Any ideas on how to fix it?

I've seen this in our drawings on ocasion but don't recall if we've found a fix.
In our case it was limited to the Bold.shx font.

What specific font is being used?
True type or shx?

It's just the out-of-the-box land desktop style profile view.  I haven't changed anything at all with it.  Font is set to standard which is designated to be simplex.  Same thing occurs in the grade break labels on my FG profile.

It's actually simplex.shx here too and the bold text is usually an Ariel font.

In some brief testing using Mtext there are a few fixes for this.

 

Within the Mtext editor, highlight all text & select another font & switch back to simplex.

Can also highlight the portion of text that's incorrect and choose simplex.shx one by one.

 

The best option is probably the StripMtext Lisp found on Cadabyss and be sure "font" is checked when running lisp.
