I would like to edit the text font for the ios, Pc is fine as it is.

Using Firebug i have located where to change the font in the Pc drop down list but not for the ios.
Ive then manually looked through the basic-style & normalize css file but dont see anything that points to where to make the change.

In my html file i cahnged the code below

<li class="current">
<li><a href="website_instructions.html?scrollto=content">Instructions</a>

To

<li class="dropfont">
<li><a href="website_instructions.html?scrollto=content">Instructions</a>

I then added the following to the css file.

.dropfont{
font-family:'Lucida Handwriting', sans-serif;}

The above was just a test to see if anything changed, but no such luck.

IOS7 has some more https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202771

I never realized that until last year when my friend wanted a specific font and it didn't work. I thought that I was going crazy.

You might want to look into font stacks so that you can be a bit more creative with font choices while offering similar alternative fallbacks for when your first choice isn't installed on the viewing device https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=font+stacks
