    Description

      Problem:
      The base font in Confluence, as specified in main-action.css is font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;
      If a user has Helvetica installed on his system, Confluence will use this (ugly!) font.

      Improvement: In our opinion Arial should always be the default font, so --> font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;

      This applies to two styles:

      main-action.css, line 5:

      body, p, td, table, tr, .bodytext, .stepfield
      {
      font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;
      font-size: 10pt;
      line-height: 13pt;
      color: #000000;
      font-weight: normal;
      }
      

      main-action.css, line 1256:

      input
      {
      font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;
      font-size: 10pt;
      color: #000000;
      }
