I'm not sure that's supposed to happen (the round letter descenders having over shoot); I'm inclined to say that the descender height should be fixed for all letters. But I'm not a typographer, so who knows.
Ah, so long as it looks good on the reader. (I just tried the font out in Word: the descenders were cut off but looked perfectly fine when printed out.)
