I am trying to customize a view-src bookmarklet for iPad. This one is looking pretty good so far.

But I want to make it just a little more readable: The Courier (New) font is a bit ugly even (especially?) on the retina display and I’d prefer any one of DejaVu Sans Mono, Monaco, Lucida Console, Bitstream Vera Sans Mono.

I tried to modify the bookmarklet script by adding: 

pre.style.fontFamily = '"DejaVu Sans Mono", "Lucida Console", Monaco;';

It’s not doing the trick.

Perhaps prettyprint cancels out my fontFamily setting when it loads. Maybe I can set it at the end of the script somehow…

    this is because Lucida Console, dejaVu sans mono and Monaco are no avaiible natively on the ipad. Unless you have added them as Webfont, this will have absolutely no effect on a IOS device. here is a list of the ipad native fonts: http://iosfonts.com/
