Has anyone had this problem before?

The lighter weight text is weight = 1. The heavier text at the top of the note is weight = 1 also. Both same color (Magenta), same size, same aspect ratio, same everything. This seems to happen when I take a note from my symbol library and place it on a drawing, and then add some text in the same size, color, and weight as additional lines. Although this block note was all one symbol, in the past I probably changed the note on a drawing and then re-saved it to my library. There is the distinct possibility that this (and several others) came from DataCad 8.05, so I don't know if that might have anything to do with "upgrade translation".

It's not a "big" deal, but it just looks messy. Any help would be appreciated. I guess the only solution I have at the moment is to sit down for a day and do nothing but place text note symbols into a temp drawing, re-type them next to it, and then re-save the new typing as the old symbol?

If they're both TTF, the darker font may have Both (outline and fill) on, whereas the lighter font may just have fill on? Ctrl-right click and open the Text Properties and check from there.
