Remove rendering differences between Text and Tags - Tags and Text part 1

[bosborne]

Goal: Remove the differences between Text and Tags and streamline the process

With the Text changes in 2017 - Text 3/32" Arial is not exactly the same size/letter spacing/line spacing as Tag 3/32" Arial - Needs to be fixed ASAP (ref: http://bdmackeyconsulting.com/revit-2017-text-editor-vs-tag/)

The differences between Text Font rendering and Tag Font rendering has caused many headaches and required many users to fix A LOT of existing annotation families with nested text.  Why are two systems being carried?  the letter G in arial 3/32" font should be the same regardless of whether it is in text or in a tag/label.

2017 Text improvements were nice - but they were only 50 % of the words that appear in drawings.  We want 100% consistency.

We're happy to announce that Revit 2018 has consistent text rendering between label in tags and text notes. 

Thanks for your suggestion and votes!
