Font Issues, how do I change it?

for some strange reason Opera on my Windows phone has picked up an unselected font type and I need to change it as it is unreadable.

Opera: config isn't available so does anybody know how I can change it?

Cheers, in Advance

thanks for your reply WebDweller ,

Unfortunately I neglected to mention that the version of Opera and trying to edit the very ancient 8.65 Mobile.

I successfully found the Opera.ini as you suggested and the only references to fonts are below:

Minimum Font Size=11

[Font.Normal]
Charset=0
Height=-12

[/font][Font.PRE]
Charset=0
Height=-12

[/font][Font.H1]
Height=-26
Charset=0

[/font][Font.H2]
Height=-21
Charset=0

[/font][Font.H3]
Height=-18
Charset=0

[/font][Font.H4]
Height=-14
Charset=0

[/font][Font.H5]
Height=-13
Charset=0

[/font][Font.H6]
Height=-12
Charset=0

[/font][Font.Form.Button]
Height=-12
Charset=0

[/font][Font.Form.Text]
Height=-12
Charset=0

[/font][Font.Form.Input]
Height=-12
Charset=0

I wonder if I should just override these settings with your suggested code? I'm just a bit worried at will break its functionality but I suppose I could always restore a backup?

I also do have a separate Opera Mobile 10 installation which looks like you're settings and have no problem with my default font. But the reason I do not like using Opera Mobile 10 is that for some strange reason it doesn't support my G sensor/accelerometer which apparently the beta did? I also find it 8.65 easier and faster to use.

Once again thank you, any help appreciated

what you say makes a lot of sense as previously it did use the default font so I loaded a new theme, but the new theme doesn't even have this font as an option, strange!

Anyway thanks for all your help, it was much appreciated :-)
