Firefox is displacing ö and ä letter dots. Why?

This ADDRESS REMOVED site has Nunito Sans font loaded from Google. Why Firefox shows ö and ä letters like this: a¨ o¨?

Chrome and Safari seems to load the font just right. Old Explorer also shows these letter wrongly.

Hello konstantin.nikkari

Can you please check that "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above" is checked on.

You can check by going to Menu -> options -> General -> Languages and appearance Choose Advanced under Fonts & Colors, and check the option of "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above"

Hope this will work for you, i just checked your website and it displayed it correctly

The Nunito font doesn't seem to include a glyph for ä and ö. If I use the Inspector to modify one of the samples then another font is used instead of Nunito.

It looks that in your case Firefox uses a font that doesn't work well with combining Unicode characters.

You can check the font used for selected text in the Font tab in the right pane of the Inspector.

Note that this is not about the font-family CSS rule, but about the font that Firefox actually uses as shown in the Font tab.
