The version from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/styleguide/products/firefox-os/typeface/ works fine. In the end, it seems that there are 3 different places where one can download Fira from: - https://github.com/mozilla/Fira (the location the port currently uses) - https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/moztt - https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/styleguide/products/firefox-os/typeface/ At least FiraMonoOT-Regular.otf seems to be different in the three locations above, the first one apparently being the one less frequently updated. Would it make sense to switch to the box.com URL the last location redirects to? The downside is that there's no single zip file with all font types anymore, but it seems to be the most canonical place in a way. Otherwise, mozilla-b2g could also work. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
