One solution is to disable Firefox preview in Preference -- Application Portable 
Document Format (disable preview)
it will revert to original setting (based on your options) allowing you to download and save the PDF file, this way it the fonts will look normal. 


I think that Firefox preview has a build in limited number of fonts, it is not 
using system fonts (I might be wrong).

Of course that solves the ugly fonts problem and I already changed that
setting, so that firefox starts the evince document viewer when I open
a PDF document. But it's not a solution for the ugly preview in
firefox. It would be nice to also solve this issue, but I don't know
how. Nevertheless I thank you for your reply.

I just upgraded to Firefox-24.1.1 and when an online pdf file is generated some ugly view pops up that is using monospace fonts impossible to read and it looks 
ugly on a print out.

Is there a solution to it?

This one looks perfect with firefox previewer.
I usually turn off the previewer and save the pdf to file.  This way I don't have a problem with firefox previewer fonts.
