My browser was unable to show most of font. example site that show this error

https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/83105?hl=en

I can only see this text - Letter i (in caps) - Letter Y - Letter l (L) - parenthesis - point/dot maybe more

This font is not actually missing because I can still paste on notepad and readable.

Example in notepad .example.com/cooking/recipes/chocol

What I see . x l . / / / l

The blank area between slash was the transparent font that can't be read. Some of tumblr page also show this error

Chosen solution

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox (you need to close and restart Firefox).

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You can also try to create a new Boolean pref on the about:config page via the right-click context menu with the name layout.paint_rects_separately and set the value to true and leave hardware acceleration enabled.
