This is not a bug.

Set the character width and height to 16 (to match the size of the letters in the sprite)

It works perfectly.

If you want to change the size of the font, you can only do so by scaling (stretching) it or by making a different sprite font.

Closing as not a bug, you just set the wrong character size. Please note Windows XP SP2 is not officially supported; you should at least update to SP3, or even better upgrade from XP.
