Google specifies the font as: font-family: arial,sans-serif;

So you may either have a problem with the Arial font or with the default Sans Serif font.

You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).

You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.

  • Options/Preferences -> Content : Fonts & Colors -> Advanced
  • [ ] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

You will have to remove or repair possible corrupted fonts.

You can use the System File Checker to check for missing and corrupted font files. The System File Checker needs to be run from an Elevated Command Prompt.
