In 23w17a, the font was updated to Unifont 15.0.01, and the glyphs for fullwidth punctuation marks were changed. There are some issues with the new fullwidth punctuation. China and Japan use fullwidth punctuation in text. This update may not be friendly to Chinese and Japanese users.
Steps to Reproduce
Copy and paste this string into a text box in the game:
字、字，字。字！字？字：字；字Expected Behavior
The punctuation marks should look like this:
As you can see, they leave some white space, have the same width as a Chinese character, and are corner-justified (left-aligned).
Observed Behavior
This is how they look in the game:
They are all misaligned.
Some of them look abnormally stretched, especially the fullwidth question mark.

In fact, the character "！？：；" is also incorrect in previous versions, but they are now weirder. See MC-241824.
Should be a duplicate of MC-262225.
