Since the Lion upgrade, on my 2006 iMac, I noticed that any letters preceding a lowercase "j" is partially cut off on drive and folder names.

Notice that this doesn't occur with a different letter combo proceeding the word Projects:

I recently took the plunge, since 2005, and did a clean install. The the issue persists. Not sure if transferring my preference files over to the re-install has any bearing on the recurring issue? I was unable to reproduce this Lion issue on my 2010 MacPro.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?

on a blank drive/partition?
Are you sure they were "Erased & Installed"?

any external drives or other disks connected at the same time with fonts on them?

Have you tried in safe mode?

A virgin install. In other words a newly created partition with no content.

What would be the purpose of booting into safe mode when the OS is a fresh install?
