• Default font replaced on accident?
    15 replies, posted
So, I've got this font: [img_thumb]http://puu.sh/uXhm[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://puu.sh/uXj0[/img_thumb] That's popping up in lots of places. Emails, some websites (twitter, shack news, etc) and I don't know where it came from. I have a feeling it might be from a theme from deviantart that I was gonna get, that had some fonts to install, but thats as far as I got since I changed my mind. Anyway to change it back? What is the normal font supposed to be anyway?
Go into Settings, then Under the Bonnet and then you can change the font from there. It'd be sans-serif. Change it back to what it looked like before and then you're fixed. Or something similar for Firefox. You can by: Firefox > Options > Content tab > Click advanced > Change it to default. [IMG]http://puu.sh/v2nb.png[/IMG]
I appreciate the help, but: 1) I'm using Opera, and while I found Opera's font settings, 2) It doesn't seem to be a browser problem. All the font options there are fine, and not that font. This font only appears in certain places. Facepunch is fine. So is facebook. But Twitter, that Shack News site, BBC news, and certain emails are affected. I [I]think[/I] I remember seeing it in installers as well, and not just my web browser.

I know right? Opera had this design before even Chrome existed. But I've done virus scans, that's not it. And I'll check the windows font settings right now.
Try checking Internet Explorer's settings. Just in case these settings come from there.
Nope, not an IE thing. Just checked. Could one of you post a screenshot of what twitter's log in page looks like for you?
I'm on Chrome: [IMG_thumb]http://puu.sh/voi2.png[/IMG_thumb]
have you tried just backing up your bookmarks and reinstalling opera? That seems like the next logical step.
Actually I don't see why I don't just do that, since Opera sync's everything (including bookmarks) with an account, so I can just reinstall easily. Before I do that, could anyone else that has Opera (or installs it) take a screenshot of a private tab. I'm starting to think maybe it wasn't something I did, and sites are changing on their own, since my twitter seems to have returned to normal, but other sites, and my private tab, have not.
Would these have anything to do with my problem? (probably) Also I learned that that font is Helvetica Regular [IMG]http://puu.sh/vYY2[/IMG] [IMG]http://puu.sh/vYZ0[/IMG] [IMG]http://puu.sh/vYZn[/IMG] What are the regular settings for you guys? Also, I vaguely recall changing some font settings in the registry, but that was a while ago.
I forgot the add that those pictures are from my registry.
Someone help me out here, it's obvious now that it's a registry thing, and it won't be that hard for someone to help me out.
I'm pretty sure the registry names are supposed to match, like Arial -> Arial not Arial -> Helvetica
I think you may of replaced Arial with that font. You may wanna check that.
So quick problem, the registry values are correct apparently. I compared it with my friend's, and the values were the same, while his computer is fine. So back to square one-ish. Dunno what's wrong.
