My Iceweasel browser was working fine until yesterday when I installed some new fonts in my system after which webpages are displayed in some random font. This does not happen on all websites but on those websites where the default fonts are loaded. Here's a screenshot:

enter image description here I think this is happening due to some other fallback font. But iceweasel's default font is DejaVu Sans. I tried to delete the font being used, but then it chooses some next random font.

I am new to linux. Can anyone help me with this.

Edit

Distro Version:

abhishek@ab-linux:~$ uname -a
Linux ab-linux 3.7-trunk-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.7.2-0+kali8 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Desktop Manager is : GNOME 3.4.2

Please let us know your distro version and Desktop manager (KDE, Gnome etc), but generally speaking and assuming you use a debian-ubuntu based distro I would check reinstall default fonts packages and would reconfig them following these commands

  $ dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config
  $ dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig
