Hi Ty,

Check also the font declaration in the style sheet,  there are a whole
bunch of font variants that may / may not be appropriate

Also depends on browser font support - if you don't have the font it will
default.   So if you were testing it locally it may be different as you
don't have the font specified installed locally.

Hi Guys

One for the interface people out there;

A client's Japanese language site :

The font used across the website is, in their words. 'Chinese Japanese'.
By this, they mean the characters are not as clear as they should be,
ultimately impacting on the delivery of the copy.

I've looked into this and the site is set up using UTF-8 which should
display the text correctly, however the client maintains this is not the
answer.

Has anyone else had this issue ?

Many thanks

Ty
