I haven't used Fontographer so I can't say what it's doing. I think TrueType
fonts are hinted so that at small sizes it uses the hinting to produce an
acceptable font. Perhaps Fontographer has removed the hinting. Assuming
that you have a legit copy of Fontographer you might want to contact the
manufacturer to ask them. You might also want to check to see if there's
some option that specifies whether hinting is to be used/preserved.

I'd be curious to hear what you find/figure out.
