I`ve tried every graphics setting on both Monitors. Went to Support & they elivated my case. I used the NCSoft Game Advisor & reported it back to them. Waiting to hear back from them on what do next. CoH Tweak has helped a little.

(its does icon repair as well which is my excuse for brain fart in not stating its also a font folder repair tool)
I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.
Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.
So sad to be ending ):

Good luck!

Corrupt Font Files in windows.
However, I wouldn't rule out other ideas.

At one point I had similar issues with font display. After a lot of testing, my issue turned out to be related to both my in-game font display size of 11 and my window scaling to 90%. When I reset those to their starting values, the font corruption corrected. At some point later I was able to go back to my previous values with no further corruption.
Your issue may not be related to mine, but it can't hurt to tweak those setting and see what happens.

Honestly I'm not sure. I'm assuming they are fonts packed in with Vista -- I'm pretty sure I did not download anything new.

List of Microsoft Windows Fonts.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.
Black Pebble is my new hero.
I have XP not Vista so I don`t have those fonts & mircosoft wants you to buy them if you dont already have it. Not to mention their both foregion languages.
Even with Tech Support it seems this is something that can`t be fixed. Redownload Clinet 3 times. Uninstalled & reinstalled my drivers & used Driver Sweeper to to. Disabled the second monitor in settings & disconnected it to. Even have disabled write combinging. Used every font I have with XP through TweakCoH. Several diagnostic programs have been ran to.
Ugh, if I want to play I just have to give up on using chat. & I can read about 90% of th mission logs.
Have you tried changing the Window Scaling in the options as well as the font size in the in-game options as was suggested a few posts back?
We'll see....
Yes I`ve tried that & everything mentioned in the thread. I`m up to email #12 from the Tech department trying to fix the issue.
Atleast I have to give them an A for effort.
Only thing they asked me to do that I havent is to swap out the video card with another to see if its a hardware issue. & that becuase I currently dont have a another card.
Thanks for trying to Help Guys & Gals! Tech Support was unable to solve the issue. So, I went a head & cancelled my subscription. Doesen`t seem they want to give a refund either.
Most likely I won`t be joinning you guys in any NCSoft games in the future either.
That's quite unfortunate ) ' :
I'm really surprised that tinkering either with screen scaling or replacing the fonts didn't help. Best of luck.

I fixed my problem. Turns out the problem was a program running in the background called Eamonn or JACT. Its a program that awards points as you play online games. Then you can turn the points in for either a reward or chance to win a reward. I forgot it was even their.
Anyway thats what was messing up my text in game. Turned it off everything is normal again.
