Hello,

using: POP Peeper Pro v5.5

I am trying to find a way to change the default font for message window, when using HTML view.

By default, for messages with no css/given layout (mostly RSS), it seems to use Times New Roman or similar. It is both a bit hard to read on screen, and for some feeds it mess up some characters.

I searched forums and help files, but not much wiser. I think I read somewhere at some time, HTML fonts are handled by internet explorer rendering. But changing default fonts (default/serif) in iexplore/edge doesn't seem to make any differnce?

Any help / pointers to instructions would be appreciated

I haven't actually tested this, but the fact that you mentioned Times New Roman and I was able to find the same, I suspect this will work --

In the Windows start menu, type and open "Internet Options"
On the 'General' page, press the "Fonts" button
The default for "webpage font" is Times New Roman; try changing it and press OK

Then open a message in PP; if it doesn't work, you may need to exit/restart PP (but I suspect just opening a message should work).

Or open up Windows Control Panel.
Yes this solution works - and by reopening the message only, not PP.
