Font not displaying correctly in enhanced view

Good Afternoon,

We just upgraded to X8 from X6. There are some thing I like and some things that are driving me insane. This being one of them...

When I am in enhanced view the font displays incorrectly (attached image on top), but in wireframe is displays correctly. Also when I export to PDF it displays correctly. I never had this issue previously with this font. The font is Roboto Condensed Normal, an open source font from Google. This is the font I use in all my files, so I am looking forward to finding a fix. Thank you!

    I believe Draw uses Windows font rendering in enhanced mode.
    Try adding an outline to a text and you will (hopefully) notice how it changes when Draw's own rendering kicks in instead.
    Same thing if you convert to curves for example.
    Shouldn't affect output, it is only an on screen issue.

    FWIW, I tried the Roboto font on my system and it looks identical in both view modes, and also when converted to curves.
    Using Draw X8 with update 1, 32-bit, and Windows 10 Home, 64-bit.
