Segoe UI font issue on Mac shows random letter/numbers in many places about typedoc HOT 8 CLOSED

As someone who primarily works on a system not connected to the internet, I really like that TypeDoc today doesn't depend on any external resources...

I think a better fix is probably to switch to what GitHub is using, does this fix the issue for you?

font-family: -apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,"Segoe UI","Noto Sans",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif,"Apple Color Emoji","Segoe UI Emoji"

That makes sense. To verify that change, I can plug that in to my local setup and check/confirm on Mac to make sure, but it seems like it should work fine. I can post back later when I have a chance to check it.

Awesome, thanks!

What the... why didn't your browser fall back to the sans-serif fallback?

I was wondering the same thing. I do have multiple colleagues on Macs that see the same behavior. I think it mostly shows up in places with italic style fonts.

This is from Chrome on a Mac.

I created a PR to change to Open Sans for the default font (which should be a very close visual replacement) in case you're interested/willing to swap it out:

#2520

from typedoc.

That'd be great! I'd like to include that fix in the next release (tomorrow/Sunday) with the next TypeScript version support

Ok, I plugged in that font-family value and it all looks good on a Mac. I made the change in the PR as well in case you want to merge it from there. Thanks!
