On some sites, I see some of the text replaced with different text. I tried these pages in other browsers at the same time and they display correctly. I tried on a private browser session and it displays the same. I had seen this previously, but it seemed to go away on its own. I was able to get screenprints of this event. If I inspect the fast.com page, I can see what the proper text should be.

These are just annoyances since I can still interact with the page, but just thought to see if I can find a fix.

Browser is updated.

Thank you in advance for any help.

That is a problem with the Helvetica Bold font that is used like your screenshot shows. It might be sufficient to reduce the Weight in the Inspector.

You can check in Font Book for font issues like corrupted and duplicate fonts.

Note that you shouldn't disable "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above" as this will cause issues with iconic fonts used by webpages to display small icons (you may see text labels instead of icons).

Thank you for the response, it was helpful. I discovered that I do have a dupicate Helvetica font installed for use in my vinyl cutting software, so I will just leave as is until it becomes more of an issue.
