Opera CSS broken on Windows

Ah, sorry yes you mentioned that earlier!
That font does not exist on my system.
It appears to be exactly what the name implies, a blank font!
If Opera is using it, that would certainly explain the missing text.
Is it on your system?
If it is try deleting it.

I made a custom theme - it's using it. Oh well, will delete font and report results.
EDIT - Worked. CSS still looks like https://imgur.com/Vny3FWd but fonts are visible. Now, of course, problem is that my theme is broken... Thank you for your help.

Well I'm glad we got to the answer, but I do wish you'd mentioned that you were using a custom theme a bit earlier, it would have been an important clue!
I'm afraid I don't know enough about how customising themes works to make any suggestions for a solution.
Hopefully someone else will.
Did you manage to restore your original profile OK? That's assuming that you didn't just do the new test install into a different folder, which is what I actually should have suggested myself of course!

Yes, I didn't lose any data, due to the fact that I kept backups. But this should be fixed - that font is integral to many Win7/8 themes. Ideal solution would be simply to revert to the state it was at 27 - font-family:custom font rather than font-family: Blank.

I've just looked at my installation of Opera developer 30.0.1820.0 and there is no mention of the "Blank" font in the source code of the settings page, so maybe it's already been addressed.
Try installing that version from here and see if that does the same thing.
I would just install it as a standalone installation into a different folder as I should have suggested before.

Dead end - problem still remains. Had to delete font with command line interface.

Oh well, it was worth a try!
One possible workaround for this, and as I said I don't know how you actually make themes, would be to try changing the name of the font file to something else, so Opera won't know what it is, and then call it in your theme using its new name, if that's possible to do.
If Opera is looking for blank.ttf, simply call the file blank1.ttf or whatever.
