Hi! I'm a Linux user. Recently I migrate to Archlinux. At first time I used Firefox without issues. Then in the process the install and config software and the distro I installed new fonts. That fonts I used in IBM Linux distro, OpenClient based on RHEL 6.5. Thats fonts are a backup of that machine. The set of fonts include around of 4000 fonts: Windows 7 Fonts, Google Fonts, Droid and others. In RHEL I have not issues with this fonts. The fonts groups are:

[elrengo@xpsl421x .fonts]$ ls -l
total 272
drwx------ 1 elrengo users   4096 Sep  8  2010 AnonymousPro-1.002.001
drwx------ 1 elrengo users   4096 Sep  8  2010 AnonymousProMinus-1.002.001
drwx------ 1 elrengo users   4096 Feb 27  2011 dejavu-fonts-ttf-2.33
drwx------ 1 elrengo users   4096 Jun 10  2013 DroidFamily
drwx------ 1 elrengo users 135168 Jun  4  2012 googlefontdirectory
-rw------- 1 elrengo users  58464 Jun 10  2013 Inconsolata.otf
drwx------ 1 elrengo users  65536 Oct  3  2013 Windows7Fonts
[elrengo@xpsl421x .fonts]$ 

But in Archlinux after fonts installation Firefox can not show fonts, and I can not write in textbox. I do:

  • Reset Firefox to defaults --> Do not works.
  • Uninstall Firefox / Re install Firefox --> Do not works.
  • Reinstall fontconfig package in Archlinux. --> Do not works.
  • Update font cache --> Do not works.

If need it something more please let me know

Thanks in advance! Kind regards

I ran that commands to resolve the issue:

find /usr/share/fonts -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod o=rx find /usr/share/fonts -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod o=r

The command will be excuted as root not with sudo.

If Firefox does not anti-alias and/or hint your fonts, try to install ttf-win7-fonts (preferred) or ttf-ms-fonts and take a look at Font configuration.
