I'm taking a guess here, but I have a feeling it has to do with different
spaces being used.
The spaces between same-color character are probably a standard space, while
those with a color command are two spaces, or another space - either way its
the fault of HTML.
Browsers are supposed to collapse multiple spaces to single, which browsers
do. 'x  x <b> x' therefore becomes 'x x <b>x'. Perhaps, because of the font
definition, a space cut down from a code gets a DIFFERENT character
definition than a regular space, and that character is slightly larger than
it should be?
