[konqueror] use always my fonts?

Hello,
is there an option to tell konqueror to use on all webpages my fonts and not something defined in the html/css file?
On 'Configure Konqueror' i have set all fonts to 'Bitsream Vera...' but on some sites konqueror use other fonts, i think it's something like helvetica.

How can i change this?

Thanks!

I have this font problem as well. I love konqueror as a web browser, but the proportional web-defined fonts are pretty bad. In firefox these fonts can be changed, but I can't figure it out for konqueror. The problem also extends to akregator.

If anyone knows how to fix these fonts, we would sure like to know.

This is not a fix for konqueror per se - but it makes the fonts look A LOT better !

My problem is the opposite of yours. I want Konqueror to use the Website's font settings, specially the colors.

Here's what I observed:
- when displaying web pages, Konqueror uses the font settings in KControl > Appearance & Themes. Meaning, the fonts it uses are the ones used by the syste.
- when acting as a file manager, Konqueror uses the font settings in Settings > Configure Konqueror > Appearance.

I'm not absolutely sure about this, though. It's only based on my observation.
