Dear administration, after I've installed FireFox 20.0 on Kubuntu 12.04 on some sites I can't see any text, in spite of it presents on source page. I tried to solve this problem in different ways and found that changing checkbox "Preferences - Content - Fonts & Colors - Advanced" "Allow pages to choose their own fonts ..." off shows all letters but as you understand with bad fonts so I can't work. So as I understand problem is that Firefox doesn't show some downloaded fonts. I tried to change different encondings and reinstall application but nothing has changed.

Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page that doesn't require authentication (log in) to access it?

You can use this extension to see which fonts are used for text that is selected (right-click context menu: Show fonts in selection).

You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).

Thanks a lot, I've solved this issue. Using your second link I found that Firefox doesn't show Tahoma, so I removed installed earlier Tahoma.ttf from system and now everything works fine. Solution is quite simple but I thought that problem was concerned with Firefox not with Linux and couldn't solve it. Maybe you can write me where I can find correct Tahoma font for Linux?
