Text display errors in gtkradiant

I'm having a problem with text in GTKRadiant.

Example :



It's in several places, like the Preferences, Shortcuts list, etc, etc.

I tried reinstalling, it didn't work.
Windows XP and Radiant 1.4.

Anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks.

Update to Gtk 1.5? Use default Windows theme? Are you using an English Windows?

I don't want to update. I'm used to 1.4.

Switching to the default theme didn't fix it. I'm using an English windows.

edit : for the record, I tried installing 1.5, same problem.

I tried that already. No luck.

Have you had any problems in anything like Microsoft Word, or another text editor?

It's a wild guess, but perhaps it's a problem with the font?

And again we hit the problem that 99% don't even know the name of the program you use.

GTK = Gimp Tool Kit.
Radiant = Map editor.
GTK Radiant = Version of map editor that uses GTK to draw the windows.
As it has GTK in the name I'm assuming it used to use a different tool kit, and was then ported over.

It looks to be a font issue, so try reinstalling GTK and/or change the font.

Does Radiant have any internationalisation stuff?  As only some text is fucked it could be that the language files are corrupted, although a reinstall should have fixed that.

Before, when it was called Q3Radiant and was maintained by Id Software its interface look like C (native Windows interface). (I tell it based on the build 202 of Q3Radiant I have and never used).

^ When I said I tried that, I meant GTK, not Radiant.

Ok, just noticed this now, it seems that the font on several websites is screwed up.

For example, wikipedia : http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/9513/wikiqu0.jpg

I'm guessing its the font that's my problem.

But I can't seem to find a setting to change the font back.

I tried that. The font listed there are normal. Tahoma, Trebuchet MS, and MS Sans Serif. Doesn't fix my problem.
