Broken fonts on some websites

[popelfresser]

Hi,

something is terribly wrong with the displaying of fonts on some websites (two so far). They look like they are drunk.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Have you tried starting Firefox in Mozilla Safe Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode
If no improvement using Safe Mode, do you have the same problem if you create a new profile and test it with no extensions or non-default themes installed?
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager
and
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_ne ... on_Windows

aint no issue with webfont as none is beeing used (es wird keiner benutzt)

https://www.uni-trier.de/index.php?id=49548&L=0

html, textarea, input, select, button {
font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, "Arial", sans-serif;
}

something else broke your profile.

Any idea about the reason behind this? Pretty devastated at that point

Did you try to use the Inspector to see what font is used?

Right-click and select "Inspect Element" to open the builtin Inspector with this element selected.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Tools/Page_Inspector

The Font tab should show what font is actually being used despite what is specified via the font-family.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Tools/ ... View_fonts

Note that Helvetica fonts are known to cause a lot of issues, so if you have any Helvetica font variants installed then remove them.

"devtools.fontinspector.enabled" was removed

found "Fuller" and "Plymouth"
https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/dtptypes/ ... xtra-bold/
https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/ef-typesh ... uth/xbold/
but both not jumping.

we need the result of safe-mode as request and he also can view in inspector which font is used if it is replaced from extension. there is nothing to view if firefox is chosing a replacement because broken fonts.

Update: Problem is gone. I don't know specifically what solved it. But I recently installed a couple of fonts I needed for a design in photoshop and I think that might have solved it. Anyway, thank you guys for trying.
