Well, whatever the problem is it is definitely related only to my system. I
tried your code and had the same results
(https://adexfulfillment.com/adex/tests/test.php). I tried different fonts as
well. The fonts I'm using were exported from FontBook on my Mac. I wonder if
that might have something to do with it. Anyway you could pass along the arial
font you're using so I can test that possibility?
Thanks!
