Can't Select Output Format since 7.50

luezuve · 03-19-2011, 12:49 AM

Hi All. I'm using Calibre on a Windows 7 machine and since I've isntalled 7.50 the whole thing freezes when I try to select "Mobi" (and others) as the output format in the conversion window. Anybody else experiencing this?

Can I uninstall and reinstall calibre without losing my database?

Thanks.

Goto preferences->look & feel and change the interface font to something normal like candara or verdana. Then clean out any invalid files from c:\windows\fonts

uninstalling and re-installing is going to make any difference

Changing the font worked. Thank you for your amazingly quick reply.

I'm curious, what font was causing the crash? i.e. what font was it set to before you changed it?
