This is a very, very old bug. It has been reported and reported, but to no avail. It is caused by mixing fonts (or font styles) in a syllable. As long as you edit in the window, and not in the score, you are fine. Finale does not allow editing of mixed fonts in a syllable in the score without this bug manifesting itself.
Please report this to support so they will have just one more case to hopefully convince them to get this fixed.
