You may need to contact Tech Support for help with this issue. Meanwhile, you can refer to the online help pages: http://www.mathworks.com/help/index.html

These are identical to the shipped documentation.

Answer 1

Looks like the "HTML Proportional Font" is set to a Greek font. To change, issue File > Preferences, and then in the Preferences window's left pane click on "Fonts" and then "Custom". Then in the right pane, in the the scroll box labeled "Desktop Tools", select "HTML Proportional Text". Then use the radio buttons labeled "Font to use" to control the font in effect. If you click "Custom" you can choose a font from your operating system's list of fonts.
