Bug Description

I was browsing Google Web Fonts online, and found a font I wanted to install (Press Start 2P: http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Press+Start+2P). I found it in TypeCatcher, but it appeared as a completely different font. I selected another font from the list, and it changed to that font. When I went back to Press Start 2P, the font didn't change.

Hmm... Strangely if you install/download the font it seems to fetch the correct font, but even with it installed and usable in other applications it is still not displayed correctly in TypeCatcher. I'll have to investigate to see what's different about this font.

Please let me know if you see this happen with any other fonts.

Thanks!
