Bug: T's and I's descend too low in a particular size of heading

The bottoms of capital T's and I's (and possibly V's?) descend below the bottom of the line of text in an intermediate heading size (not sure if this is Heading 2 or what).

You can see it in this example from p. 185 of Bob Utley's New Testament Survey: Matthew - Revelation. See how the bottoms of the red underlined letters here don't line up with their neighboring letters?

This happens in a lot of resources. It's very evident in the ISBE.

I was thinking maybe it was another Windows XP font issue. What OS do you use?

This is a known problem with the hinting on the Athelas font that has been reported to the font designers.

Cool. I hope they fix it. I was trying to train myself to ignore it but wasn't having much luck.

Interesting. It doesn't happen for me. Perhaps it's related to your screen resolution. I'm at 1920x1080.

Perhaps. It's not a problem if I increase or decrease the font size, but it is at the default size, which is the preferable size unfortunately.
