I've installed KDE with the intentions to try it out, but now, after removing it and going back to Unity, I noticed that the fonts in Firefox are still like in KDE.

How can I revert the font type to before KDE was installed?

The solution is removing .fonts.conf placed by KDE. This restored the fonts to normal.

For Ubuntu 14.04, remove the .fonts.conf file in ~/.config/fontconfig

rm ~/.config/fontconfig/.fonts.conf

Go to:

  • edit->preferences
  • Click, 'Content'
  • Go down to fonts and colors/colours and change the font to whichever you would prefer.

  • It's set to the defaults, and changing it doesn't change interface fonts.
