The font I am using is Tahoma 11. In preview (V10) it does not show the font correctly. It looks like a different font. But when I upload the website, it is shown correctly. So it is only wrong in preview. Will this be corrected in a future update?

Hello Born 2 run,
Where exactly is the font not shown correctly?
In the menu or the text?
Did you try to remove the Font and download it again to see if probalby the font is corrupted?
Many thanks!

Hi Claudio.
Only in the text the font is not shown correctly. In the menu it is shown as it should be.
This is a project which I made in V9 and than imported in V10. I also tried to make a new page. Tahoma 11 is put as the standard font for the text in the advanced settings. But this did not help.
Any ideas?
Hello Born 2 Run,
Can you please send me a screenshot of how it appears?
Did you try to reinstall the font?
Many thanks!

Attached a screenshot from both situations. The above one is the page online. The below one is the preview from V10.
What do you mean by reinstall? I selected another font, saved the project, closed the program, opened it again, and put the Tahoma 11 back again. But this did not make any difference.
Hello Born 2 Run,
The following article gives advice on installing fonts in Windows 7 (other operating systems will be slightly different of course):
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Install-or-delete-fonts
You can download the Tahoma font from many sites on the web... for example:
http://www.fontpalace.com/font-download/Tahoma/
You could also try clicking 'Restore default font settings' which is located at Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Fonts > Font settings
Let us know how you get on.

Thanks Paul for the info. I reinstalled the font, but it did not change anything. The problem is still there.
By the way, I do not have that problem in V9.
Hello Born 2 run,
This is an issue present in Chromium like you can see on:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=163020
And this happens because the height 11 is not a standard height of the font since it was designed with height 10 and 12 and so the browser needs to render a height which is not existing and this leads to not show it like the other browsers.
The best option would be to use or 10 or 12 of height since then the font is shown always correctly, since this height was made by the font designer.
Many thanks!

Hi Claudio.
Okay, thanks. Well, at least now I know where it is coming from. Thank you for your help.
