Follow-up Comment #22, bug #49216 (project octave):

Verdana is not a monospace font ("i" and "l" definitely takes less 
space then "e" or "t"). I think it is just not a very good font. 
It was designed for low-resolution media (like computer screens) 
which at that time was like 72pdi or something (circa win98).

Aial was designed to be Helvetica substitution and it is a print
font (designed for media with 300dpi and higher). 

Try some more modern fonts. I like "Noto" these days.
