How to control website font in Firefox?

My Firefox always shows some website with weired and ugly font. After changed it in the options, it remains the ugly one, e.g. at feedly feeds. Does it have any solution at all?

Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page that doesn't require authentication (signing on) and also attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
*View > Zoom > Reset (Ctrl+0 (zero); Command+0 on Mac)

Try to set the gfx.content.azure.enabled pref to false or if this didn't help disable Direct2D by setting the gfx.direct2d.disabled pref to true on the about:config page and leave hardware acceleration otherwise enabled.

That way you still have the benefit from hardware acceleration, but may not suffer from rendering issues.
You can also try to uninstall Windows update KB2670838 if you have this update.

You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

How to Change the Default Font in Firefox 4 ?

How to Change the Default Font in Firefox 4 , for this >>

Go to properties first: and set before typing anything in as shown here:

Then right click bring up this menu while inside active field and click on item with arrrow:
http://screencast.com/t/ZTRjMWRkMzk
Now what ever you typed should reflect the new Font setting.
we may be as you say. But then again other people act like whats on the other side.
We do our best. And if we fall short, well we gave it our best shot.
Okay. In the interests of being completely clear:
I have already tried this. Several times. This procedure will change the default for any of the fields that I place by hand. It does not change the default for any of the fields placed by the Wizard. I was unable to find a solution to the problem in any of the manuals, books, or on-line forums, which is why I posted here as a last resort. This leads to two conclusions:
A. Your advice is incorrect
B. There is a problem with my installation of Acrobat
I will assume that A is not the correct conclusion. I will therefore try a re-install of my software to see if this clears up the problem. There have been other issues with other Adobe software on my machine that a re-installed has fixed nicely. Luckily, I don't have to do this at all often.

I am trying to open a website that is using Microsoft content viewer, and the page does not show. Any ideas on how to view this site using firefox. It works on IE.

I am participating in an online class whose website uses Microsoft Content Viewer to view the class content. The browser opens a new page, but nothing is there. At the top of the tab it says Microsoft Content Viewer, and nothing else. Can anyone tell me how to view my course using Firefox? I would prefer not to use IE, but it works there.

When originally creating the pdf, you would need to choose another pdf conversion setting. In Word if you use the pdf menu, change your settings there: Adobe PDF > Change Conversion Settings. I would use High Quality Print instead. If you use the File > Print method, click the Properties button next to the Adobe PDF printer selection.
For your already created form, you can change the file so your users will not encounter issues. In Acrobat 9, which hopefully is similar in process to 8: Advanced > Preflight > Profile tab > PDF/A compliance > Remove PDF/A information.(You'll have to unsecure your form first).
You can read about PDF/A files in the Help.

How to block a particular website in mozilla firefox?

I just want to block a particular website from mozilla firefox browser. The steps given in the option are not working really. let me know in details the procedure to block a particular website.

The best way to do this is not by browser but by using parental controls. Blocking in a browser can always be bypassed (usually very easily). [[Block and unblock websites with parental controls]]

I run firefox on three computers and on this one my website font is not correct. All of my boxes are set up the same. Please advise.

As I mentioned above I have three pc's all running win7 and firefox 6.02. On this box website fonts are different than the others. All of the "option" settings are identical on all of the boxes. Including "allow pages to choose their own fonts". I uninstalled 6.02 and installed 5.0 but there was no difference. So I reset to 6.02.
The pages look fine in IE.
Please advise.

That change needs to be made to the CSS file that is on the web server.
So if you use a CSS file or have the CSS code in the main HTML file then add font-stretch: condensed; to all CSS rules that have a ''font-family: "Arial Narrow";''
If you do not have access to the page code and can't modify it then there is not much that you can do.

How to install dynamic fonts during loading the website?

During loading the website, some of theTamil fonts in official website are not displayed in the browser. Dynamic fonts are not loaded and displayed. So I need the help to enable dynamic font installation.

How to download and install additional fonts in Firefox

I am wanting to add fonts which are "bold" or "black" such as "Arial black" or "Courier New Bold". I sometimes like to use darker fonts.

It's tricky to seamlessly override the fonts websites choose.
* Firefox makes it easy to simply substitute a handful of selected fonts for all website fonts, but this will not always work well with the layout.
* The zoom feature will enlarge all characters making them easier to read, but sites that do not flex to fit the window will get a horizontal scroll bar. ([[Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages]])
* You can create custom style rules for the websites that most need improved legibility, but this will take some time to set up, and a bit of experimentation.
Perhaps there is an add-on that improves readability without having to make a lot of compromises? I haven't tried any of them myself.

When I look in Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel it reports Firefox as 5.44GB. Could this be true? If so how do I reduce the amount of space it is taking up?

It is quite common for the program size listings to be wrong. To check the actual size of the Firefox installation, you can manually check the size of the Firefox [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory installation directory]. It is is typically around 26-30Mb, and the default location on 32 bit Windows is C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
There are also a couple of other locations where Firefox stores data, check the size of the following folders as well.
Firefox also stores user data such as bookmarks and passwords in the [[profiles|profile folder]]. It should be inside this folder C:\Users\''username''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
Firefox stores temporary files in the cache. To find the location of the cache, type '''about:cache''' into the location bar. It should be inside this folder C:\Users\''username''\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
The last 2 folders are normally hidden, you may need to set Vista to [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial130.html show hidden files and folders].
