I use either comic sans, or similar fonts when writing the document and forget to change it all the coments are "reformat from comic sans". Using comic sans as its easier for my dyslexic brain to read.

A simple but honestly kinda brute force way around it is to replace the TTF or equivalent font file for their font with a copy of Comic Sans on your system. It will show as Comic Sans on your system but will actually be Arial or Times New Roman or whatever in the document, so it will be what they expect on the other end.
That said, it is a simple accomidation, it should be manageable for them.
Generally its not a problem just a reminder to change it before pdf, and it is ment as light hearted fun not malicious.
Oh of course, I just find that having some weird needs gas made me seek weird solutions and I like to share them around. I definitely didn't get anything malicious from your post? Not sure if my tone came across poorly, I was going for a cheerful and helpful response, not any sort of critical or nasty, sorry if I sounded harsh or anything like that, definitely not my intention.
No worries, thats the vibe i thought you were going for but wanted to clarify. I'll try changing the TTF soon see how that goes, or just a reminder to check the formatting but that never works 😂
