Displayed scale format problem in drawing title

Anonymous
Not applicable
When I choose to show the scale in the drawing title on a layout, there are additional unwanted spaces on either side of the equal symbol, making it hard to read. For instance, quarter inch scale is displayed as: 1/4" = 1'-0", instead of: 1/4" = 1' - 0". Also, see attached.

This is true for masters that have 'original scale' autotext in the title block as well, so it seems this is a global-ish issue. Where does one format that?

I've tried changing the font, changing the spacing, magnification, etc for the autotext on the master. I've changed the title too. Nothing gets rid of the extra spaces. I just started a solo version of Archicad. Never saw this on full version. Anyone else?
