Font changed in browsers

[LessThanJaker1]

My font changed for firefox and safari. It is not letting me change it to any other font. It changed to a weird novelty font. At first i thought it was a firefox thing, but it is also affecting safari. Any idears!???

Repair permissions. What do you use for font management? Are all your fonts in your system/fonts folder?

I dont think ALL of them are in one place. The only place i see all of them is in Font book

Fonts aren't stored in FontBook, they are organized there. Search for the font you want and make sure it's in system/fonts. You can use 'verdana' as an example.

Safari is notorious for forgetting where fonts are. Repair permissions and restart and your problem might resolve on its own.

Remove duplicates in fontbook (black dot). Delete/clear font cache. These answers at the bottom of this page:
