Add more - any - font (typeface) options

Right now the only customization available for font is to change the size of everything in the message area of the app. No matter how big we make it, it's still the sam font. Please add more options - both for general settings AND for composing messages - to choose different typefaces. This solves two problems:

  1. General Accessibility - if Webex's default font is not readable enough to end users, there is currently no way to change to a different, more readable typeface. There should be options for serif fonts, sans-serif fonts, and monospaced fonts, at the minimum. Setting the overall font for the app should affect how text is displayed in all areas of the app (space names, settings windows, menus, and received messages, etc)

  2. User Personalization - Allowing users to send in different fonts allows for personalization and differentiation - I can use the font that appeals to me personally, and/or I can select a font that's better suited to the message I'm trying to post: see the user example below.


User Feedback: "Does Webex have an alternate monospaced font available somehow? - and ~ are too easily confused with each other, especially if someone isn't expecting to need to differentiate ~ and they type the text rather than copy/paste. 1 and l are a bit more similar than is comfortable for those cases, as well.

This seems like something that should be available in their accessibility options, but I'm not finding it."
