610542 - Text resizes during page load

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

One odd thing I've noticed about the new www.mozilla.org redesign is that text changes size when the page is loading. This may be a gecko thing, but right now, www.mozilla.org is the only site I see this on. I'll attach a screencast of what I'm talking about.

In this video, you can see the text in the heading as well as "About Us" above the side menu change, when I click on "About Us".
Then, when I click on "mozilla" the same thing happens, including the text "We're building a better Internet"

This is an issue with the WOFF font downloading.  Initially the page shows a default font that gets replaced after the WOFF file downloads.  Not sure if there's much we can do about this other than optimizing the page load time in general.

Close as wontfix?

Closing old Mozilla.org website bugs due to them not being relevant to the new Python-based Bedrock system. Re-open if this is a critical bug and should be resolved on the new system too.

This got fixed with the new new mozilla.org (or maybe with Firefox itself?).
