Windows 7 SeaMonkey 2.49.4 The body of the article uses a font named "FB Web Use Only". However, the mangled "Tübingen" is a mixture of that font and Georgia. The source does not show a change of font for "Tübingen". I see the problem in both SeaMonkey and Internet Explorer. If I change my preferences at [Appearance > Fonts] to uncheck the checkbox "Allow documents to use other fonts", the problem is resolved. This causes the page to render with my choice: Georgia 5.00. -- David E.
