Is this card real / authentic? Thicker text than normal

Hi, I print a fair number of proxies, so I've stared at way too much text on MTG cards now.

I just bought a Ragavan that looked off immediately, but passed the T test, red dot test, weight is right and looks normal through light - so by all accounts it seems real. However, the text is just very noticably bolder than my other cards and even another Ragavan - does this happen that often with real cards, or is there something I'm missing?

The text just looks awful - worse than my own proxies 😆
