This font problem has been driving me nuts - I've got used to it with
Netscape, but with Mozilla the problem has got *way* worse - to the
point that the majority of the text on webpages is completely illegible.
I can't seem to find out in Mozilla which fonts are to blame for this
problem, however when I have some time I'll deinstall all fonts and put
just truetype fonts on the system and see what that does.
If I manually select a truetype font for webpages in Netscape, then
browser pages are rendered like a dream - the fonts are easy to read,
etc. However changing fonts like this does not affect the skin - which
is still illegible.
Regards,
Graham
