Having trouble with fonts showing as outline boxes after doing most recent Firefox update.
I just updated to v56.0 on a Mac a few days ago, now on many of the bigger sites I go to I am experiencing outline boxes instead of words. Makes it impossible on some sites to navigate. Amazon happens to be one of those sites. Ironically, it was happening on Mozilla's site the other day. That seems to work now. Any ideas?

We have seen cases where a box with all '?' or all 'A' is displayed that might be related to using a Last Resort font that displays all the glyphs with one same character.
You can try to set this pref to 1 on the about:config page.
- security.sandbox.content.level = 1
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
