Thanks ernie-f and handrawn.
It's not a big issue - I can just convert the text to shapes as you suggested - just wondered what was going on there since I hadn't run into this before.

Does this happen with all fonts or just this one? It's really weird that a font would not have a solid outline. I guess it's not impossible I just can't imagine why a font designer would want to do that.

That font is either a variable font (it comes with Windows only as a variable font) or it has had "instances" created form it and the overlaps were never cleaned up.
The overlaps are there in a variable font so that as the font, in an application that supports variable fonts, has the parameters adjusted, the font becomes lighter or heavier, or slanted, etc., which may include each piece being controlled separately stay overlapping.
I suspect Xara product, at least the desktop applications, will never support variable fonts.
Thanks Mike.
