Default font changes

We are updating the Document Object Model (DOM) default fonts and UI fonts for Windows apps using JavaScript for several languages, as defined in the table below. This means that certain webpages and web apps that depended on Internet Explorer’s old default fonts may look different. Although their overall appearance should be improved, this change could confuse certain tests that depend on a specific look for certain scripts. For example, Arabic with no font specification now defaults to Times New Roman as opposed to Simplified Arabic. The UI font is determined on a per-language basis. For example, for Windows apps using JavaScript, UI fonts for Japanese will now be Meiryo UI. You can mitigate the effect of this change by specifying a particular font instead of relying on old default fonts, and by updating your tests to expect the new font values.
