Mac Font Issue in Paragon Market

Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere - I've searched but failed to find anything concrete other than, yes, it is a problem.

Has anyone figured out a fix that would allow someone suffering the font issue in the Paragon Market to actually see what the text is supposed to be? Is there any timeframe for it being fixed?

Kinda sucks to _want_ to be able to spend my points but not actually be able to...

I'm getting a bit confused now. It sounds like the font issue is resolved for some people, but apparently not for others (and myself)? The market is a bit more readable for me, but all of the button and tab characters are still [X]'s.

I can see everything fine. It looks like the Beta server's fixed version to me now. I was even able to sit there on there without crashing and didn't have to do the trick to log back in. So for me it's fixed as far as I can tell.

So my guild-leader says the P-Market appears normal for him, while it's still pretty borked for me. I found out that he is running Snow Leopard, while I'm running Lion. Conspiracy?

That's not really new. Snow Leopard, for some reason, doesn't seem to always have the problem. One of the things that people wondered about back on Beta was if Snow Leopard -> Lion dropped whatever font the Market happened to use. I'm not sure if it always works for SL users (or Leopard).

You would think that if it was just a font issue, they could (at least temporarily) fix it in non time - switch the font to Arial which EVERYONE has. That or tell us what the font is and I'll go download it and install it again.

I suspect the problem is something a little deeper than that.

Or it's really that simple and taking a lot longer to fix than it should...

There were errors for Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion users up until a few days ago.

Now, there are almost zero text errors for Leopard users, a few left hanging around for Snow Leopard, and Lion is catching the brunt of it because Lion has been out for so short a time, and most likely lost or renamed a few fonts in the upgrade process from Snow Leopard. For now, I'm sorry to say, all you can do is do your best to figure out what everything is, and hopefully a fix will be patched soon.
