Last week, after installing a lot of new fonts, Camino started using
a bizarre (and virtually unreadable) font to render pages that
specified Arial (though not Arial Bold). I traced the problem to a
corrupted Arial font (it was actually a font called Disco Monkey
masquerading as Arial). I replaced the problem font with the copy off
my iBook, and Arial now displays as expected in Font Book.
However, Camino (and Firefox) continue to display Disco Monkey when
they should be using Arial, even though Disco Monkey is no longer
active. I've checked for font conflicts, and flushed every system
cache I can get my hands on, to no avail.
So, do Mozilla browsers have their own sneaky font cache somewhere? I
really need to get my default fonts back to normal. Trying to use
Google is a nightmare. I have tried trashing the Camino prefs, the
Application Support folder, and tried resetting the fonts in
Camino>Preferences>Appearance>fonts. Arial displays correctly in
every other application I try it in.
TIA,
Richard
