On the navigation bar, type about:config, look for 
font.directory.tuetype.1 to see where the browser is looking for. You 
can edit the config file form within the browser by using the mouse 
(right click). You can add other paths (font.directory.truetype.2, for 
instance ) pointing to the folder where the fonts are. I hope this can 
help you
