Question

I've just upgraded to Mountain Lion (OSX.8.x) and It appears the font being used on this forum is being substituted. I need to know what font is used so I can go back into Time Machine and get it.  OSX.8.1 FontBook is much tougher on fonts.  and puts many in Trash.  You have to put a few back.

    Not any of the well tried fonts specially created for screen reading, but one of their own. I forgot which because this is a battle I lost completely very long ago, and therefore I am no longer interested.

    Don't worry, surely someone who knows will answer shortly.

    I figured it out myself. I opened fonts and checked. For some reason Varanda a Microsoft licensed Font I seemed to have remebered for some reason was chosen.

    Turns out three of the four variations were missing.  I went into time machine and checked all four variations and had time machine replace them.

    Now the Forums appears as they should.

    I will not mark my on answer as  the answer. Someone else will have to do that.

    Let's just call the Thread Finished.

    Phillip,

    Somehow, I think that your pet "Sea Monkeys" are messing with your fonts, and with your mind...

    At least you got it handled, and good luck,
