This one doesn't seem to work for me (???). It was one of the ones I
tried but didn't inlude in my original email. I attached a screen shot
of this and a variation of it at

http://test.chris.chiasson.name/fuel-cell-electrochemistry/Grid%20Alignment.png

(I made sure to remove my FrontEnd and Kernel user directories before
launching Mathematica for this screenshot. I have so much stuff in my kernel
init.m that I needed to rule it out as the cause of the problem. Also,
I wanted to make sure that the Magnification workaround you supplied
for the 72 DPI issue (a long time ago - thanks, BTW) wasn't causing
any problems.)

Carl Woll sent an example that does work (on my machine), though I
don't yet understand how it does so:

Grid[{{1, 1, 1, 1000}, {2, 2, 2000, 2}, {3, 3000, 3, 3}, {4000, 4, 4,
   4}}, Alignment -> {Right, Baseline, {{1, 2}, {1, -1}} -> Center}]
