How can I fix a sharepoint excel file that opens in gibberish to normal text?

We are using shared reports from a sharepoint having the convenience of accessing these reports via browser. But a few days ago, certain users are having problems with these reports, because when they access them, they see gibberish rather than normal text. This does not happen when its opened on the desktop app, only when its opened on the browser.

How can I fix this?

    Same fix for us. Change the font from Arial to anything else and the problem is fixed

    Any update to this at all? We can't just change the font since we have so many sheets and they all have multiple tabs, etc.
