I recently installed Reader 7.0.8, to replace my previous Reader 5. I noticed that on some sites, much of the text is coming up in a handwritten font that is almost illegible. This seems to be the content text, not the headings or main items. I have a large number of fonts on my computer (almost 3000), including quite a few handwriting ones, but can't figure out why Reader is picking one of those up or how to fix this. If I could find out what font it is getting, I could remove that one or change it's name, or, if I could find out what font it was supposed to be, I could make sure an appropriate font is found. Any suggestions on how to figure this one out would be greatly appreciated, since I am finding any files that come down as PDF are pretty close to unreadable right now.
