Dropbox changed my font!
Dropbox has stated that it does not alter fonts... I just uploaded a Word document set in Helvetica Neue... I’m now viewing the .doc file on my phone and the font has been replaced with an extremely u...
Dropbox didnt change the fonts but if the font you use is very special and cool
then the program (browser or app) that u use to view the files will replace it with the most available font ...
So it would be a good idea to use a "safe" font especially if you want to share it across many devices and lotsa people
- The Dropbox viewer should be defaulting to the closest available font, which would be Helvetica or Arial... makes no sense that it is defaulting to a heavy display font. This is an issue with the Dropbox viewer, not my phone. As I said, my phone displays other documents with this font no issue as Helvetica Neue is now a standard Apple font.
Does that mean that Dropbox doesn't implement CORS for raw requests ?

Also, remember that viewing on a mobile uses the mobile viewers and are previews only.
Once you download it back to a device it will be fine and back to the original layout etc.
