PNG Export moving labels

I was trying to export a PNG of just the labels, so I could import it as an overlay in Realm Works. I would deselect all the layers except labels, and choose a single file. I was exporting at 50% scale, since Realm Works doesn't like large files. Every time I exported to a PNG, most of the labels would be moved to the left side of the screen, not all the labels. Exporting as a .TIFF file (which has an alpha channel) worked, and I converted it to an PNG in GIMP after exporting.

Actually, it looks like it's happening when I scale the map down from 100%, regardless of what format I choose.
(in my previous example, I had forgotten to scale it down to 50%, and Realm Works promptly complained about the large file size).
For now I'll just resize it in GIMP.

Hello,
We found the bug. It was triggered when trying to scale export a label that was center or right aligned. It's been fixed for Beta 5.
Thanks for catching it!
