I've searched through here and it seems that fonts are NOT handled
well in any version of IE <= 8 on any install of Windows. This is
becoming a big issue with the application I've been developing using
Google charts.

Firstly, I was wondering if there was a work around or upgrade that
can help this. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

Secondly, I was wondering if anyone has tried SVGWeb for this issue?
It seems like this would work, but wanted to know if anyone has tried
it with any success before I start down that path.

Thanks for any help,
Snowdall

Hi,
I have fond that wrapping the fontName in first single quotes, then
double quotes fixes this issue. Do it like this:
fontName:"'Arial'"
