Hi, all

I have a font problem.

I installed many fonts on my windows vista yesterday.

But then the font is changed like below image.

How can I change this font to original font?

[tom]

Make sure Vista's default font Segoe UI is available under your fonts.
As it's using Tahoma pt.11 in XP here, maybe you need to check that as well.

[sandykoufax]

thanks tom.
but where can I change default font?

[tom]

I mean if you have both of these fonts installed already, there's no reason for having problems. By default, Tahoma is the font but only if it's available. Did you already check these fonts are available on your system?

[sandykoufax]

Yes, Tahoma is correctly installed on my system already.

and Segoe UI too.

[tom]

Hmm... then I guess it could be something to do with Vista settings and as I'm not using Vista I have no idea. But you can be sure Maxwell has no such preference.

[sandykoufax]

OK. thanks for the effort, tom.

I should have adapt my eyes to this new font.

[tom]

What I would do is looking for the font now you see on the interface and removing it from the system until it matches the expected font. It's like it could be looking for an internal definition like "Proportional font" or "Sans serif font" etc and as you added more fonts, this one alphabetically passed over the original one and take the priority. So, I assume you can find which font it is, no?

[sandykoufax]

Actually I can do that. but I installed too many fonts at one time. (maybe 500+ ??).
So I'm afraid how many fonts I should remove to see the good font.

[tom]

Well, you can start by removing the one you see on the UI now. I bet it won't go through hundreds of fonts and maybe will be OK in the first attempt.

[sandykoufax]

OK. I'll try and tell you result.
