#Helvetica neue light firefox windows
Are there likely to be any adverse consequences to my removal of Helvetica? Is it an essential font anywhere, so that a Windows substitute cannot work properly?
Why the (rather drastic) solution of removing Helvetica altogether may have worked?ģ. Can anyone tell me why Outlook, and only Outlook, appeared to be unable to display text in Helvetica properly, when a program such as Word in the same Office suite had no problems at all?Ģ. Trying this - and it worked! Problem messages in Outlook now displayed absolutely clearly (presumably by a Windows substitution of Arial)!Īnd that brings me to my questions, which are:ġ. Refinements included adjusting character weights, proportions and spacing, all of which were sometimes compromised in earlier versions of the family in.

He had discovered that a solution was simply to delete the Helvetica font from his computer. The same problem as mine, but in the browsers Chrome and Firefox rather than in Outlook. I have checked my preferences in Firefox and have in the Content > Advanced: Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above ticked. However, quite by accident I came across a forum entry from someone who had had exactly The font I am using is Helvetica Neue Light, which can be selected from the standard Hype font menu. My next step was to undertake a pretty extensive internet search to see if my problem was reported anywhere else and, if so, what remedies had been found. Curiously, there were no similar problems with Helvetica in other Office 365 programs such as Word, where the font was fine. Further experimentation shewed that it was not incoming Helvetica text that was affected if I tried to compose a message to send and then change the font to Helvetica, the same happened That the common factor was that all the texts involved were using Helvetica. I then looked more closely at the messages involved in Outlook and discovered A properly configured system should automatically. This, I tried to find out what was going on, and the first thing I discovered was that in other e-mail readers the display was fine, so the problem was clearly limited to Outlook. The PostScript language defines 35 core fonts in PostScript 2. I noticed some time ago that a small number of incoming e-mails were appearing in Outlook (on my desktop PC) in a form very difficult to read, with a thin grey font with the characters shewing somewhat broken lines.
