SUMO has problem with font again. Some non-ascii chars are not rendered correctly (see schreenshot). It was OK yesterday I think. Regression?

It was fixed a few weeks ago. See Bug 785707.

We started using the fonts hosted by mozilla.org today. So it is related. Is this issue still present on mozilla.org?

We are pointing to the exact same font file used on http://www.mozilla.org/pl/firefox/14.0.1/whatsnew yet we are getting those weird renderings https://support.mozilla.org/pl/home

What gives?

This fixed my problem.

Instead of:
font-family: 'OpenSansLight', sans-serif;
font-weight: normal;

I did this:
font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;
font-weight: 300;

In addition to calling the font name followed by the correct weight, I call the font by its family name rather than PostScript name. Notice the space between ‘Open’ and ‘Sans’.
