What's your problem? It's Ubuntu's issue? You want Windows fonts? Install msttcorefonts. Otherwise why do you write in General Support?
And I would like to originally saw here ...

Well, in Linux so I displayed. And I think my problem should go in "General Discussion" because I could not find a suitable area that has to do with fonts, if I'm wrong, sorry.

And if it's not the sources of microsoft, I just want to know I can change or install to my style or MyBB displayed with its original source.

Thank you.
You need to install Microsoft Windows fonts (msttcorefonts package) on Ubuntu to display your board correctly. You can also add another font family to your CSS styles like "sans-serif".

I can't understand you almost at all.

Ready!, just install the fonts. But even as I still see the forum, with the same font.

Do I have to modify or change anything?

I hope your help and answers. Thanks again.

Note: Ando using a translator, my tongue is Spanish lol! sorry for bad translations, is all I can do.
ACP -> Styles -> your style -> global.css

Find:
font-family: "Tahoma";
and replace it with:
font-family: "Tahoma", sans-serif;

//edit
lol, there is Spanish forum here. ;D

Lol! I did not know what the Spanish forum, thank you, now if I save time and misunderstandings hehe!

I did what you said and still remains the same, and the only question I would not change the source of the page, but I view both MyBB other styles or the original source websites that are made.

I read a strange source, install the package already, and still the same.

I hope your answer and excuse the abuse for posting here.

Ok, I installed it and works great, but I did the font "Tahoma", was the only one that is used on most websites and forums.

But now comes out bold, all you have "Tahoma". Do they know why?

Thank you.
