777286 - Firefox for Mac extended unicode characters rendered improperly for Georgia font

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1
Build ID: 20120713134347

Steps to reproduce:

Since a Firefox update from early June 2012 (v.13 and following?) the extended characters such as čČšŠđĐčČćĆžŽ of the Georgia font are replaced with characters from the default Times font on OS X which doesn't look very nice.

Earlier versions of Firefox rendered this font correctly. Also, Safari and Chrome display this font correctly.

I haven't noticed this problem with any other font which is very strange.

Please see the screenshots from www.siol.net and www.mozilla.si below.


Actual results:

The update broke font rendering.

Hello Simon,

I just found your bug-report from 2012 and I'm sorry that there was no feedback over the time.
as far as I know this was solved in another bug-report and nobody inform you.

can you confirm that this is OK now on an actual Firefox Version?
or if not, an actual page where we can see the error.

thanks for your help.
Stefan
