Changing the font family in the options dialog didn't help - I was not able to change the rendering. No matter which value I enter for the font family it doesn't change. Changing the font size works pretty well.

The Homebrew recipe just downloads our Gnucash-Intel-4.x.dmg. You can prove that to yourself by running
 spctl --assess -vv /Applications/Gnucash.app
in Terminal. You might want to do that anyway because if something's gotten corrupted on either machine that will tell you.

Are both machines running 4.2? Have you assigned the same stylesheet to the report on both machines? Do you have any customizations on either?

Perhaps a screenshot of each report would be helpful; it's hard to make useful comments based only on "one of them looks ugly". Remember to attach the screenshots to the very bottom of your reply so that the list server doesn't discard them.
