Helpviewer text formatting problem

Some pages displayed by helpviewer have overlapping text.
Take the page for ifconfig for instance.
Under ‘Options:’ the next line should read:
interface A string of the form name unit (e.g. en1)
I get :
interfA string of the form name unit (e.g. en1)
where the capital A overlaps the lower case ‘a’ of interface.

The remainder of the options do that same. Its as if a tab stop
is wrong. I have seen this on other pages also.

It’s some bizarre problem that Voyager (which is what’s behind the
helpviewer) has with italics in certain fonts. For now, go to the Options
dialog and choose New Century Schoolbook as the font (you might also want
to increase the size).
