Are you on Windows 7 (and is this application being accessed via an intranet)?

  • If so - go to Tools -> Compatibility View Settings, and uncheck 'Display intranet sites in Compatibility View'.
  • Also, either add a header via your web application, or use a <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"> in the <head> section of the page to force IE=Edge.

The only time I saw this problem was with versions of IE < 10 on Windows 7 getting thrown into 'IE8/9 Compatibility View' with Document Mode being automatically set to IE 7 standards.

Aside: No changing of chart themes or styles would fix this. I tried every method of changing styles and creating a new theme to be applied, and as long as the Browser Mode was wrong, IE decided to use whatever that script font is.

In my case - it didn't make a load of sense as to why this was happening to our sales guy's laptop, as our site forces http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=Edge,chrome=1", but somehow his browser was set to Browser Mode: IE 9 Compatibility Mode - Document Mode: Internet Explorer 7 Standards.

  • Upon opening up the Developer Tools in IE, and changing his browser back to standards - everything worked.
