When I post a pdf online (which I do frequently) the fonts don't show correctly when it is opened in Mozilla. I've never had this issue in the past. Why now, and how do I fix? I have the same issue in Chrome...but it displays correctly in Explorer. Please help!

Hi pdfhelpneeded, Can you please provide an example url to the pdf for further troubleshooting? And what pdf reader are you using?

Hello, I wanted to follow up on this issue after reviewing some of the changes with the current update. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1049521 This bug addressed some Windows HKEYs that are changed when Firefox is updated/or installed.

As an update, a patch has been made and changes are on the way for fresh installs of Firefox :-)
