Weird font with large upper case letters

Hi

 

Reader on Windows has just started displaying some docs in a weird font. On my mobile (Android) they display fine, as do they with Firefox and Chrome. I've done a Repair Installation and then uninstalled and reinstalled Reader , then updated it, all with no difference, so I'm stumped.

 

How do I fix this?

I'm not sure how that page says what is being substituted.

It just says stuff like this:

 

 

Ditto for Arial, Bold.

 

 

 

 

 


That answers the question. Somehow Reader is not able to find Arial on your system. It is either damaged or not properly installed for all users.

We are not aware of such a problem at this point. We would appreciate it if you could share such a PDF file with us such that we can duplicate the problem and determine exactly what is going on.

Ok there's a couple of examples at https://mega.nz/file/zIZjTY7T#iXmNTl-xXj67webzt7HxyDmK3A8r_1HMCg7Qbelnlg8.
