Outlook 2007 Display Font
in [Outlook]
|
From: JGreg7 on 15 Apr 2010 13:13 Is there a way to change the Outlook 2007 display font? I am talking about the font the program uses for general display, menus, etc. I have finally been able to turn off the clear type, but the font is different than what is used on the rest of the computer. It appears to be something similar to a calibri, but it is difficult to read. The rest of the computer uses Tahoma and is just fine. To test this, I changed the computer font to Times New Roman, and almost everything changed except Outlook 2007. -- Thank you, John Gregory

Some items are controlled by Outlook, but without knowing exactly which items you mean, we can't say. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]
From: JGreg7 on 15 Apr 2010 15:40 It turns out that Outlook 2007 ignores the system fonts and uses its own font... unless of course you delete it. After having enough of the Outlook 2007 font I searched and found the following link: http://t-machine.org/index.php/2007/11/28/fixing-the-blurry-fonts-in-outlook-2007/ It turns out the culprit is the "Segoe UI" font which comes with Office 2007. If you delete this font from the system, Outlook 2007 will then default back to the system font. Now it looks normal again. -- Thank you, John Gregory "Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: > "JGreg7" <JGreg7(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > news:6A4E08E7-B762-405B-848E-084B9070A8B9(a)microsoft.com... > > > Is there a way to change the Outlook 2007 display font? > > > > I am talking about the font the program uses for general display, menus, > > etc. > > Most of what you've named are controlled by the Windows theme.
