Description Gordon Wells 2005-01-12 08:41:52 UTC
Unfortunately I could find no answer for this in the forums.
Posting here seems like the next best option.

Konqueror won't use any of fonts I specify to render most web pages. No choice of font makes any difference. Instead it reverts to an ugly non-aa default (I think arial or helvetica - not sure). The are nothing unusual, all bitstream vera. I can use the same fonts for the rest of kde. If I login to a suse 9.1 machine instead with the same login, it uses the fonts without hassle.

This has persited through various versions of kde, from about 3.2.

For example google renders correctly, but bbc does not.

Reproducible: Always
