Description:
All browsers on my Arch Linux cannot render font and show no text at places on some websites, while other computers can. The site in question is here: http://blog.keithcirkel.co.uk/how-to-use-npm-as-a-build-tool. I have reinstalled, system update and all, but it's still wrong. Before I did the -Syu system update, jsfiddle.net's code doesn't show, now jsfiddle.net renders fine but that site (keithcirkel.co.uk) gets even worse.

Steps to reproduce:
It's so mysterious, I have no idea.
This task depends upon

What text on the link appears on other distros but not on Arch?

I scrolled through the site you linked to, I don't see any issues. I'm guessing you're simply missing fonts.

Ping?

The font missing is a CSS font, which I suppose, doesn't need to be on my computer. When I delete the font name from the CSS rule, the text shows up. It's probably an issue with loading that CSS font. Other computers using Arch doesn't have that problem though, it's kinda weird.

The font in question is 'Fira Sans' used on that site.
