Font message on startup

When I first start Firefox I get a message that a particular font is not installed and asking me to allow it, not allow it, or show it in finder. It is a font that is in my font folder in my hard drive and is even listed on the font choices in the Preferences tab. It is not the font chosen for Firefox purposes, however. How can I prevent this message from popping up each time--very annoying!
