Revit 2022 - Weird Text Width Glitch

A few months ago, I installed 2022 on my home machine.
I seem to be getting a bug where the text width is wrong on my home machine.
Office machine is fine.  Everybody elses machines (home and work seem fine too).
It's wider for some odd reason.  If I manually click into edit the text, it fixes the width for just that single element.
It affects the text inside families too (titles and titleblocks).Office Text.png

Work Tower and home tower ond both the same version/patch of Revit.
22.1.30.34
20220520_1515(x64)
2022.1.3
 
Home machine is running Windows 10 Pro
Version: 21H2
Build: 9044.1826
 
I've searched around, but haven't found anybody else experiencing the same issue.
 
Any idea what's causing this?

Maybe desktop scaling? Set it to 100%.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I'm running a 3x monitor setup at home and office.

I've set all 3 to 100% display scale and tried changing around the primary monitor.

No change.  The width bug is still there.

 

Is there any other ideas?  This is so weird.

I had a similar problem a while ago where Windows 10 Pro comes with Arial Narrow pre-installed but Windows 10 Pro for Workstations does not.

 

Check that both machines have the same font installed.

We solved this problem the exact way the other day by installing the Arial Narrow font on the machine.

Amazing!  That did the trick!
Thank you so much!  @Lachlan-JWP @curtisridenour 

I had no idea my 10 Pro didn't come with Arial Narrow.
