SUMMARY

When using "vertical" resolutions (9:16), fonts appear warped when rendered. If I set my project to 16:9 again, the fonts appear as they should.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Choose a 9:16 aspect ratio.
2. Open a subtitle track and enter some sample text.
3. Render the video and see the results.

OBSERVED RESULT

Fonts appear warped on the video. (Like the horizontal scale, which gets "shrank".)

EXPECTED RESULT

The fonts should appear like how they appear in 16:9 videos.
