Hi Johnny,

I don't know all the details of the implementation of UIO at this point. So 
someone else may be better to answer, but I'll give the first pass a shot.

First off, which version of Infusion are you using; 1.4 or some pre-release 
version straight from the git repo? As for the font not changing, that's 
somewhat expected. UIO will actually pick from a selection of fonts, depending 
on what's available on your system. The default will be to use Georgia for 
Times New Roman.

https://github.com/fluid-project/infusion/blob/master/src/webapp/framework/fss/css/fss-text.css#L106

Hope that clears things up a bit. I really appreciate that you continue to 
experiment with and surface issue for UIO. It's really helpful.

Thanks
Justin
