It was not a problem with my browser that the new fonts were not accessible. It was just a stupid little setting that was disabled. I don't know why those Googlers even put it there.
Anyway, the fix is very simple.
- Click Settings at the top and go to Documents settings.
- Go to the Editing tab.
- Now enable the New version of Google documents.
Don't you agree that there was no reason to put that setting there? Fine, maybe some people won't be comfortable with the new interface right away.
Whatever. Your problem is fixed, at least.
