Snow Leopard 10.6.2 update brings back the infamous Firefox font problem

10.6.2 update for Snow Leopard fixes lots of issues. But not like 10.6.1 update, the 10.6.2 will keep us busy fixing pesky font problem in Firefox (the fix is here if you need it). I just updated the fix tutorial with screenshot, so it’s more newbie friendly I hope.

The interesting part is, they have font fixes list:

  • an issue with font spacing 
  • an issue in which some Fonts are missing 
  • font duplication issues
  • an issue with some PostScript Type 1 fonts not working properly

 

Maybe 10.6.3 will be luckier.

Firefox bold font UI problem in Snow Leopard

If your Firefox interface font somehow become bold after Snow Leopard installed (or its updates, 10.6.2 for example), and you also have bold (or italic) fonts in several sites that is using Helvetica, you need to do this small and easy fix.

Open the Font Book application and make sure you don’t have Firefox active.

Find "lucida" (this is the font in Firefox interface), and delete Lucida Grande (Regular) by right click & click "Reveal in Finder", you will have to enter administrator passwords to delete it. And do not worry, you don’t even have to make a backup, because Mac will recreate this font for system purpose.
