The Journal of Global Buddhism is currently using the Gentium font for the online articles, book reviews, critical notes, and PDFs. If you do not have the font installed in your font folder for your browser, you will need to download it <here>. Downloading happens instantaneously but installation does not and refreshing the browser is not enough. The font will normally be downloaded into the default location for downloading. From there you need to drag it into the Fonts folder. After that you must quit the browser and run it again. (Browsers, like almost all other applications, read the list of available fonts when first opened and never thereafter.)
