Hello airey. Sounds like you could have a font conflict. I had a similar problem with mail and address book. Sometimes FontBook screws things up for no real reason (even if you have never opened it). have a read of this:

hope that helps?

check for dupe fonts and helvetica's your usual offender.
reinstall your fonts.
