Whenever I used to write text in a sticky note it looked kind of like someone's handwriting. Now it's an ugly, rough font.Any idea how to fix this?

Sticky notes, uses Segoe Print font as a deafult font, so if you have deleted this font form your system, then it will use Microsoft Sans serif as it's default font.

Also if you have copied something from a internet page or something in there, it will use that font instead, I suggest that you press on the + button and try typing on a different sticky note as if you still have the Segoe Print font installed on your computer, it will use that.

Solution
Copy something from another program into a sticky note using the font you want to use. It will keep the last font used.

Update: Ok, this doesn't seem to be working any more. Sorry about that. :(

Agreed, you can't actually pick your font preference. Of course there's a boatload of 3rd party applications out there ;) :)
