Change your style sheet?

Suddenly my "e" characters are appearing funny in posts and text inputs.
But at this site only.

I've cleared my font cache, both for user and system, but it's still funny - and other forums are fine.
I'm curious if you changed your stylesheet and I need to blacklist a font that doesn't work right in Linux (our true type rendering isn't always perfect due to Apple patent).

You aren't by chance now using downloadable fonts, are you?
That could be the issue, because firefox 3.5 uses them but if it is a font that's funny w/o the patent infringing freetype option, it could be the problem.

perhaps  Font Book could do a repair check.

Re: Change your style sheet?

I rebooted and it's back to normal, I suspect there was a corrupt font cache in memory or something.
