fonts in firefox

Ok, I have this same problem as well, but doing CTRL + or mouse scroll
wheel makes some fonts gigantic, while others only get a little big
bigger.  The end result is that many poorly designed websites no
longer render well, with GUI options missing or unreadable because the
text has scrolled off the side of the button.

Why is is that even though I have msttcorefonts installed I cannot get
Firefox on Linux to look as good?  The default settings on Windows
look nice and sharp, and quite readable with no tweaking.  On the
Linux side of things, not so much.  I have even tried duplicating the
exact settings I had on Windows but to no avail.

Firefox on Ubuntu seems to look a bit better than FF on CentOS though.
