Comment (by LukasThyWalls):

 As in version 2.6.0git4261-g9ebd702a4cf (Mar 12 2022 04:47:50), with
 Maniac Mansion Deluxe 1.4 ({"MANIAC.EXE", 0,
 "465f972675db2da6040518221af5b0ba", 10409172}) some translation still has
 this issue, and others don't.

 Spanish version, for example:

 French, Finnish and others are, meanwhile Italian doesn't.

 It seems is related to the special characters used in each language
 different to the english ones (á, é, í, ó, ú, ä, ç...) and those
 characters aren't rendered in the outline, so phrases without that kind of
 characters look normal, and others with them don't.

 Also, talking about the verb sentence (and the dialogs itselfs, but they
 aren't as noticiable as in the verb sentence), you can see the font aren't
 pixel perfect resized and they look with blurriness (it also happens in
 the save/load menu https://i.imgur.com/7axfdCI.png).
 Those fonts looks like are taked from the SCUMM/Monkey/Indy era, but in
 Maniac Mansion Deluxe, doesn't look like that at all, including the
 outline:

 I'm not against using an original kind-of SCUMM font, but at least they
 could look much better than that, pixel perfect resized.

 Thanks in advance!
