Firefox fonts changed after install ttf-mscorefonts
My question is probably simple but I can't find a way to revert it to the previous state.
After installing mscorecofonts
(which was installed during pipelight
installation) my fonts in Firefox went crazy and it is ugly as hell now.
Can anyone advise how to reset to the "default" font setting?
In my experience ttf-mscorefonts
installs broken MS fonts. If I had such an issue as you report, I would go to Firefox > Edit > Prefs > Content > Fonts > Advanced
and select there either the Deja Vu
or the Liberation
font families, both designed for on-screen display.
This should deal with the crazy fonts. If it still doesn't work, you may also experiment with different sizes in that dialogue.
