Using Windows 10. When converting from EPUB to PDF, I often like to change the font, and that's been working without problems. However, I started converting using a font I've come to like for reading, called GLYPHA LT PRO LIGHT. The conversions are successful, but when I use the highlighter in PDF Expert (iOS), the highlight is offset below the text. If I open the same file in Acrobat and go into edit mode, I end up with an edit box around each individual letter rather than around the whole page of text. Each edit box is also offset below each letter (same behaviour as the highlighting).

These issues haven't happened with other fonts, so it seems peculiar to this font. I had been using a couple of font look-alikes, so I thought maybe they were 'bad fonts', so I even purchased the original GLYPHA LT PRO LIGHT font, and the problem persists.

I would love to use this font by default, but the highlighting issue takes away from the joy. Any ideas? Thanks
