Firefox has that feature that reduces the spacing between two chars if its still not overlapping. As a result the text size measurement is 2px smaller if the measurement is done in Firefox. As a result the text in Chrome is cut-off. In this particular case Firefox reduces the spacing between first letter "T" and next "a". In Chrome we still have 2px spacing.

Fixed by changing the Probe#DEFAULT_PROBE_STRING to have a sequence like "AzBy...YbZa". With this sequence, font probing produces different results in Firefox and Chrome and strings are measured again in case of a difference.
