No, in my case it was a real bug - I had the wrong scaling factor by a
factor of 72.
In this case, the issue is that, for example, a 'W' is a different
width in Helvetica than it is in, say, Courier. In fact, they may be
different *heights* too. So, for each font family you select, you
need to know the fudge factor between what you want and what you've
got.
Note that I did have to make this correction for the web site tools,
but I got that close enough with the first version.
