Dar, your list is scary... It's as if someone decided consciously to make sure that fonts didn't quite line up the same on the competing platforms. Excellent resource though, and shows why weird things happen when you start using cross-platform fonts of that size (72pt)
fixedlineheight and adjustment of the lineHeight value has made a huge difference. Thanks for pointing this out, even the Hebrew font looks reasonably well placed now!
exciting things ahead ... thanks to all of you!

Here are the results of a test with Arial. Notice, oddly, that changing the field font to Arial also had a corresponding change to the font used in the control group...
Try setting the fixedlineheight property of the field to true and the setting a fairly high lineHeight value. (The lineHeight property corresponds to what printers call "leading".) If the fixedlineheight is false, then characters do not always use the same leading across platforms.
