I see a bunch of entries in my Console related to Mariner Write, why?

Example: 10/15/09 10:55:23 AM Mariner Write[5070] CoreText: Invalid 'kern' Table In CTFont <name: Bauhaus93, size: 14.000000, matrix: 0x0>

CTFontDescriptor <attributes: <CFBasicHash 0x4b8110 [0xa0503ee0]>{type = mutable dict, count = 1,

entries =>

1 : <CFString 0xa00fdd58 [0xa0503ee0]>{contents = "NSFontNameAttribute"} = <CFString 0x4a1620 [0xa0503ee0]>{contents = "Bauhaus93"}

In this case, the font "Bauhaus93" is corrupt. You may have a corrupt font that is causing the messages. To mitigate this situation please launch FontBook and run the validation on all your fonts. Remove corrupt fonts and try to launch Mariner Write again. Backstory, Mariner Write has a WYSIWYG font menu and we ask the system to draw each font for us - if a font is corrupt it causes the process to fail and crash.
