    Hi there,

     

    We make no edits or changes to files - ever - be it images, text, size, fonts, anything at all. The exact data that was uploaded to our server will appear online and will sync down to any other connected devices. As a result, Dropbox wouldn't be the cause of what you are seeing.

     

    When fonts change:

     - the machine viewing or previewing the document must have that font installed, should the OS not have that font installed then it may default to another one.

I uploaded PowerPoint presentations to Dropbox and when I downloaded them back to my (same) computer, the font has changed to GREEK. I suppose Dropbox doesn't change files, but has anyone experienced and found a solution to this kind of problem?
