No, it is a bug/glitch that started a few months ago. You can find many threads on it. Just have to wait for everything to load. Hopefully, the Devs will find what causes it and adjust it back to the way it was before.
Point 1:
I’m having the same problem with one of my laptop (the one that i use when i’m traveling XD ) and the problem is caused by the video card that have the Ram shared with the MoBo.
Point2:
Change your graphic settings. Same here with the travel laptop and low graphic i get a blurry effect. With the gamestation @home i have no problem.
And with strange aeons even death may die.
Specifically, the graphics setting you need to change to solve the font problem is “Interface Size”. Unfortunately only one value for this works properly with the trading post: “Normal”.
Kind of stupid because text everywhere else in the game scales properly with this setting but not the trading post.

Yes, this is a known issue and thanks to the great search system here I can’t find the link for a thread :P They are different from the rest of the UI because TP uses webkit, like a browser built-in the game, then that’s why it’s different and probably where the issue lies on.
