This forum's font looks bad on my new installation

Some forums, including this one, look bad in FireFox on my new installation of Arch. Or more specifically, the main font looks bad.

I had the exact same problem on Fedora a few years ago when I did a new installation. I thought I rememberered that the solution there was to install some Lucida font. But running the command "xlsfonts | grep lucida" gives me the same results on my Fedora and Arch systems.

I installed several font packages which improved other things but not this.

Any ideas? Is anyone similarly afflicted?

Never mind.

Someone suggested I remove these bitmap font packages: xorg-fonts-75dpi xorg-fonts-100dpi

I did and now everything looks beautiful!

This is an interface to the Special Function package present in the GNU Scientific Library. SYNOPSIS
FUNCTIONS
gsl_sf_sin Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e()) Sin(x) with GSL semantics. gsl_sf_sin does not process bad values. It will set the bad-value flag of all output piddles if the flag is set for any of the input piddles. gsl_sf_cos Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e()) Cos(x) with GSL semantics. gsl_sf_cos does not process bad values. It will set the bad-value flag of all output piddles if the flag is set for any of the input piddles. gsl_sf_hypot Signature: (double x(); double xx(); double [o]y(); double [o]e()) Hypot(x,xx) with GSL semantics. gsl_sf_hypot does not process bad values. It will set the bad-value flag of all output piddles if the flag is set for any of the input piddles. gsl_sf_complex_sin Signature: (double zr(); double zi(); double [o]x(); double [o]y(); double [o]xe(); double [o]ye()) Sin(z) for complex z gsl_sf_complex_sin does not process bad values. It will set the bad-value flag of all output piddles if the flag is set for any of the input piddles. gsl_sf_complex_cos Signature: (double zr(); double zi(); double [o]x(); double [o]y(); double [o]xe(); double [o]ye()) Cos(z) for complex z gsl_sf_complex_cos does not process bad values. It will set the bad-value flag of all output piddles if the flag is set for any of the input piddles. gsl_sf_complex_logsin Signature: (double zr(); double zi(); double [o]x(); double [o]y(); double [o]xe(); double [o]ye()) Log(Sin(z)) for complex z gsl_sf_complex_logsin does not process bad values. It will set the bad-value flag of all output piddles if the flag is set for any of the input piddles. gsl_sf_lnsinh Signature: (double x(); double [o]y(); double [o]e()) Log(Sinh(x)) with GSL semantics. gsl_sf_lnsinh does not process bad values.
