Font Corners Unwanted Beveling

Since downloading Photoshop CC 2019, I've had issues with some square cornered fonts beveling or angling when the corner should be square. With script fonts I don't see any issue. This happens both on screen and when printed.

It has a stroke applied somewhat - can you do Character panel > Reset Character, then apply the font/size/color again?

That worked. Thanks!

That didn't make a difference. When my colleague opens the file on Photoshop 2018 the font still has the same issue.

The font seems way off, could you provide the file for testing?

It is Arial Narrow Bold in the image, but I have the same issue regardless of bold or italic. There doesn't seem to be a specific type of font it happens to -- most fonts that have hard corners are having this problem, but occasionally one that doesn't. Happening to both TrueType and OpenType fonts. No stroke effect on.

»Shot in the dark«: Does checking

Photoshop > Preferences > Performance > Legacy Compositing

and restarting Photoshop have an effect?

Not 100% sure what font that is, but appears a little bolded also. Do you possibly have a stroke effect on there?

Which fonts?

Please post a meaningful screenshot wit the text selected and including the pertinent Panels (Options; Layers, Character, …) visible.

Is a Faux Style or a Layer Style involved?
