If you look at the opening post of the the thread, the font Brother Gabriel-Marie is having a problem with is not any of the gregorio fonts.
The font giving trouble is apparently a font called "Mirage" with is a "font forgery" of ITC Benguiat made by MicroLogic Software. Unfortunately, MicroLogic is no more, so there is little chance of them fixing their font. Brother, if you really like this font, perhaps the genuine ITC Benguiat (which is of course not free) would not have this hinting problem.
