topic iconFonts a bit stretched

Is there a way to fix this?

I designed a pixelated font using FontStruct.com to use in Paint, but there's a weird glitch. It renders perfectly everywhere but in Paint, where I get a weird stretch out of it that throws off the pixel effect. I can't explain it but a picture can... I'll make a link to a screenshot (And the font if anyone wants it!)

Anyone know if it's fixable?

I think it may be due to Bold option. Does it disappear if you turn it off? Also, disabling/enabling integral coordinates after moving it may help with better alignment to pixel grid.

Oh, that's the issue. For some reason it always starts on bold... but that's the issue. (I thought I fixed that...) Thanks!

Apparently pixels don't "bold" well...

Sorry, me up there. I got an overly protective cleaner app on my computer and I don't stay signed in on most sites. My computer apparently doesn't like cookies LOL
