It used to be that anything in Courier Bold in kwrite would appear scrawny 
and in the wrong width if I started kwrite while AbiWord was running. If I 
exit Abi and kwrite and restart kwrite, the font looks fine. Now Courier Bold 
looks scrawny no matter when I start it. What is going on, and how can I fix 
this?
