      In my Opera 12 fonts are switching all the time. Sometimes I have a font only with icons, which makes it impossible to read a website.

      Does someone know how to solve that?

        I have same problem on at least two websites. The source of one showed a font nightmare -- crazy.
        Two solutions: switch to user view
        or use the ComicSans extension.
        (actually, I like the happy readability of Comic Sans)

        third solution: dump those websites instantly -- irresponsible owners

          Fourth solution - user userCSS to override the page fonts. Fifth - and this may be the problem - disable webfonts. He did say Opera 12, which is terrible at handling webfonts.

            I decited to use the sixth solution, switch to the new Opera, which have lots of disadvantages but also some advantages. Without able to read websites sometimes or having maybe only one font is no solution for me.

            I wonder, because the problem started just out of nowhere some weeks ago and is on most websites. Maybe one of the webfont services changed something.
