Garbled Reports in Windows 8.1

Created attachment 269450 [details] Report # 1, in windows 8.1 - Garbled Have an issue with reports with GnuCash 2.6.0 and 2.6.1 (Version 2.4 did not have this problem). The problem is only seen in my desktop running Win 8.1. There is no issue with my other machine running Windows 7. The displayed reports, and their pdf extract use funny fonts and some of the numbers are garbled. When extracted to html, the report is OK Changing the stylesheet, and using a different theme don't seem to have an effect This issue may be similar to bugs 721435 and 722455. I have logged his as a separate bug, because the screen shots do not appear similar I have attached two sets of screenshots, one set from my machine running Win 7, and the other from my machine running Win 8.1

Workaround for issue found EITHER - Using Font "Tahoma" in GtK2 Theme selector (using the "select theme in the gnucash program group ) OR - Edit - Stylesheets - and in the "fonts" tab, change all the fonts to "Tahoma" However, IMHO the problem with the default fonts should be looked at - so as not to scare away first time users from the program *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 721435 ***
