Which font are configured in khelpcenter ('Settings' menu -> 'Configure Fonts...')?
Does it make any difference if you change them?

I can confirm this issue. Changing the "sans serif font" from "Noto Sans" to a monospaced font (Luxi Mono) has fixed the issue.

This makes the text boxes overflow and causes misaligned highlights but the text is readable.
