I am experiencing a problem where dialog boxes under OS X have the text cut-off. In some cases the end of a line is truncated. In other cases, the height of a line of text is shortened. A missing font perhaps? A display postscript issue?

See here for an example:

Can anyone suggest a possible cause and/or a solution? Thanks in advance.

Well, the cause is pretty apparent: it's using the large system font size (13pt) for everything, even the text that should be drawn using the small system font size (11pt). It could be a corrupt font, I suppose, at which point you might want to consider using Pacifist to re-extract Lucida Grande.dfont... it could also be the case that you have another copy of the Lucida Grande font somewhere that's overriding the built-in system version. Lastly, if you have TinkerTool or Silk on your system, make sure they're not overriding the system fonts.

Good luck!

Thanks Phoenix, you nailed it. I had inadvertently changed the display font size with Tinkertool.
