I turned off my PC (Ubuntu 14.04) and when I turned it back on the fonts had changed (file names, folder names etc.). Why did this happen and how can I change the fonts again?
Now is this way:

Can we see a screenshot? Press print screen and it will be added into your Pictures folder, then you can add to the post. – Tim Dec 02 '14 at 16:47

@Tim I have seen this post. My main concern is why the fonts were changed. Also it didn't help me as through the terminal I can't see how each font looks. – Adam Dec 04 '14 at 05:33

Why this happened is not really a question we can answer without forensics on your computer. If you would like a GUI version, have a look here – Fabby Feb 25 '15 at 22:02

Maybe it's the font/UI scaling. There is a bug declared in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1317253
To change the default font there is a similar question Change default system font using terminal only in 14.04

Using "Unity Tweak Tool" you can customize your default font and themes,
Command to install this:
sudo apt-get install unity-tweak-tool gnome-tweak-tool
You may be asked your system password, for installation.
To open Unity Tweak Tool, open the Dash and search for Unity, open the Unity - > Appearance section and select your customized themes and fonts. Check they work after a restart.
