We can't see what you see on your screen. Check the fonts used in your form. Did you change it?

Try taking a screenshot, and uploading it to Dropbox - we can't help unless you know what you are talking about!

"FOnt is Calibri, and it doesnt seems to be like it."

That isn't Calibri - it looks like a mono-spaced font, possibly system or similar, in a small font size.

Check the system the app is running on: what fonts does it have installed? Because if Calibri isn't there, it will select the "nearest" and use that.
Try Verdana or Arial - they should be installed.
