Well, as some kind of consolation I've discovered that similar code (using NSString sizeWithAttributes:) and the same font name gives equal widths for digits or spaces on the Mac SDK.
The other thing I notice is that the iOS-generated width divided by the number of characters is exactly 14 for spaces, but is something close to 14.4 for all other tests. This makes me wonder whether something is being truncated or converted at the wrong point within the size calculation._______________________________________________
