    Default Help!!! Font issues (websites displaying random fonts)

    All of a sudden certain websites have changed the font they use. Most notably is Wikipedia but my own website is doing it too - even tho the html code is set to display as helvetica; it's coming out as something entirely different as seen on the screenshot below

    Have I accidently changed a setting somewhere?
    Can anyone help?
    Im running a Macbookpro

    I'm using a PC...but I'd guess that maybe you changed your default font settings in Safari?

    Probably a problem with your Helvetica. Looks like Futura or something.

    Did you uninstall Arial, maybe? I think wikipedia's just looking for a sanserif font.

    I figured it out, some websites have started displaying Helvetica instead of Helvetica Neue...

    Not sure how to change this but for my personal website I've switched to using Arial instead.
