The text in the address bar, tab titles, menu, and bookmarks bar is compressed and garbled. Reinstalling did not fix the problem.

Does it has effect if you temporarily remove these two fonts from its installation folder?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).

Is the problem still there?

Did you check what default fonts are set in the Linux font settings?

You can try to set gfx.font_rendering.fontconfig.fontlist.enabled = false on the about:config page.

Thanks very much! The problem was specific to Padauk, which happened to be my system's default sans serif font.
