Fonts automatically changed



My fonts on individual software changed.

I have Excel spreadsheets that I use daily, the fonts changed over this past weekend.
I set up tasks in outlook on my desktop, the notes fonts have changed as well.
These are things that I have been using since January.

I didnt do anything to modify them.

I do not see how I can easily change them back.


I looked on the desktop, and now the fonts are the same as my pda.

Is there an easy way to change them all back?

Can other fonts be added to pda?

thanks for all help and suggestions,

matthais

when apps are installed they will occasionally install new fonts.
Windows mobile 5 seems to like to use new fonts it finds. Try copying some true type fonts from your windows PC to the windows/fonts directory on the mobile device, and maybe it will use one of those instead after a restart.

you could also try just deleting 'bm mini' too, but i think last time i had that happen to me, i couldnt delete the fonts as they were 'in use'.

Oddly enough, mine changed too - most notably in Opera. Not sure why. I don't recall installing anything. Odd. Used Tweaks2k2 to change system font to something more legible. All seems fine now.
