When joining a single line of text to the top of a
circular path in Aldus Freehand (on the Macintosh),
tops of some ascenders are "cropped-off" uniformly
above the highest part of the arc.

I'm using type1 fonts and ATM.  Increasing the leading
doesn't help.  This only happens at large point-sizes and only with
some fonts (mostly share-ware cursive style fonts).

Any explanation and/or fix will be welcome.
