My computer shows a completely different Twitter font? - Ruby - 10-15-2012 08:54 PM

What can I do to get the real Twitter font? My internet font setting is set as Unicode (UTF-8). Should I change this font?

Unicode (UTF-8) is to decode languages. It contains i think around 64000 unique characters with much more space to fill.

If your computer doesn't display fonts correctly or the correct fonts, your computer probably doesn't have them installed. (yes you need to install fonts to be able to view them.)

One said it was a hand tweaked of Chickens by Sparky Type.

Another thought the Tondo font.

Another thought it was Font: 0.75em/1.5 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif;
You will most likely have to pay to have it installed on your pc.

If you do not have the font installed you get the default font you set in your browsers options. Will look for font families and up date.
