    Description

      When using multiple different Arial based fonts, it can end up picking up the wrong one when rendering. For example, if Arial Black, Arial and Arial Narrow is used to render on the same painter then it is possible that it will use one of those fonts instead of the specified one for drawing text. In one case it will use Arial Black for the top line and Arial Narrow for the other lines despite one of them explicitly using Arial.
