website fonts does not look correct.
When I open some sites it does not show the font clearly and very difficult to read. IE or chrome usage looks good which I am doing now. Want to use Firefox again.
Firefox version: 28.0 OS: Windows 7. Example site: http://www.ndtv.com/news/ Troubleshooting.
Without addon: Same issue Safe mode: Same Issue New profile for firefox: same issue. Even for this site the font are not looking correct.

Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
Note that the site is using the Helvetica font (Arial,Helvetica) that might be used in your case and that doesn't always work satisfactory.
There are also fonts downloaded from the server via @font-face rules
You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted or fonts that otherwise do not display right.
You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.

I don't find the issue with the fonts. If there would have been issue with font it would not work on IE or chrome as well. Even when I am typing this message the font does not look right. Screenshot attached.
Hello,

Could you check Windows 7's ClearType settings? Unlike IE, Firefox relies on your Windows 7 settings for anti-aliasing.
Did the font quality change suddenly and, if so, can you associate it with any Firefox or Windows updates? Or graphics card driver updates?
This site uses a font named Open Sans which is downloaded. If Firefox isn't able to download the font, it will substitute something it believes is similar. Perhaps you are getting a terrible substitution??
