I just had the same experience with the MacInTax Geneva font and Word 5.0,
5.0a, 5.1 and 5.1a. The text in the Font Box (in the ribbon) and the text
in the Style Box (in the ruler) would become corrupted (an overwrite with
different spacing between letters) rather frequently.

After trashing the MacInTax Geneva fonts, and reinstalling the Apple 7.0.1
Geneva fonts all is well.
