Hi

I think that this is more down to the way that the website has been built than anything you can directly and easily change on your Android device.

Hi

So that I can look into this, do you have an example of a website address where this is happening?

Or any other website on that domain


Thanks

The website only names specific fonts. "courier new,courier". The website would need to add "monospace" to the list to get the correct behavior on any device that does not have Courier or Courier New.

Thanks. So the best solution is to install font on Android? (If possible)
