The MS tests use a whole set of Ahem_xxx.TTF fonts for the fonts chapter, that's what my original note was about. Those are missing from the Test/Fonts page. For the CSSTest set there is a test page: contributors/mozilla/submitted/fontreftests/test-prerequisites.xht It doesn't test for all the fonts in the set, that's tricky to do since some of the fonts are intentionally constructed to reveal name matching bugs. I think it would be nice if instead of directories of fonts, the build process zipped up Ahem and variations and the CSSTest fonts into two separate zipfiles (the licenses are different so I think it's better to keep them separate), that would simplify the steps needed to install.
