On Chrome it displays perfectly (or falls back to sans-serif???) but
on firefox it is extremely difficult to read. Using firebug I can
force it to use sans-serif, which does display nicely.
Here's the link to a screen capture:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19486401/neue.png
that shows the leading vertical edges of n,u,h,p don't display; x is
also broken.
That looks like trying to display a font using lines less than one pixel
wide, and only the anti-aliasing being visible.
Do you have your screen DPI set correctly? You're not using a faked up
DPI to change font sizing, like some people do. That's the sort of
problem I'd expect to see from doing stunts like that.
I haven't mucked with the display settings. Xorg.0.log says my DPI is 96x96.
The monitor is a Hanspree Hi221D, 1680x1050.
Side note: this is the only font I've seen act like this. (Not so sure I like the idea of a webpage pulling in a font family when we have perfectly fine fonts provided by fedora ;)
That web page is using a downloadable font (you can check using the Firefox devtools inspector: right click on the text -> select "inspect element", and open the Fonts tab in the inspector window that'll appear).
You can force all web pages to use your own fonts in Firefox, first open Edit -> Preferences -> Content -> Advanced and disable "Allow pages to choose their own fonts.... ".
Note that this may prevent some pages from disabling correctly as there's a new trend of using "icon fonts", see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789788
