I have a website where the masthead and other title fonts are defined in the CSS but Firefox shows the font as Times Roman. The website is correctly displayed in IE9, IE8, chrome and opera.

The fonts, which have been described in the CSS file as:

  1. content h1{background-color:transparent;border:0px;font-family:"Copperplate Gothic bold";font-size:1.75em;font-weight:normal;margin:0px 0px 10px 0px;padding:0px;}

Display as Times Roman (I think). If i substitute a single word font name instead of : "Copperplate Gothic bold" such as: "Arial" it works ok.

Do you see that font if you select it as the default?
