What's your error @mac_mcquaid?

@here, We solved this-- the baseline was at the bottom of the part, causing some letters not to render. The trick ( until I fix it) is to make sure your baseline is not at the extreme bottom of the part.

Please see the newest version of the text feature, which allows a baseline at the extreme edge of the part:
