Ok, this is a corrupt font issue, I had to solve this for a friend a while back.
It was quite laborious to fix.
I'll try and find a link to an article I found and post back.

In the meantime, this is well worth a try first:

I do remember I used it and it found the corrupted font and I had to remove it form all apps that my use it, and from the font book.

Just remembered, the problem was specifically with Lucidia Grande, so it may be worth you trashing it from font book and then restarting your Mac.
Hopefully that will sort it.
