Quotation marks don't show up in any text on any web page, and any words that are italicized don't show up at all. Why?

That is usually caused by a problem with corrupted or missing fonts.

You can use this extension to see which fonts are used for selected text.
This may also work for blank areas if a font isn't working.

You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).

You can try different default fonts and disable website fonts as a test.

Thanks. I enabled the option to allow websites to choose their own fonts and it fixed it. I knew it was probably something simple, but couldn't think what it was.
