I went into Options/Content, etc. to change font but it doesn't change anything no matter what font I enter. Have had no problems with my font until this week. Was there another upgrade to goof things up again? I'm with Windows 8.

Hello,

Under the same content tab, can you click the "Advanced.." button and make sure that:

  • You have selected the correct "Fonts for:" category (i.e. Western), and
  • "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above" is deselected?

All the suggestions were previously selected and I thank you for responding but situation is still the same.

When sending email, the font is "small" and can't get it to PERMANENTLY change to LARGE. Have to change it every time I write an email.
