 The new TBA is using wrong fonts on sites, and some of internal pages like
 "server not found" or about:tor page.

 Affected versions:
 - Tor Browser for Android
 - Tor Browser for Android alpha

 Both from Google Play and both reports as 60.7.0esr in about:version and
 60.7.0 in Google Play.

 Affected devices and firmware:
 - Sony Xperia X Performance (Stock Sony 41.3.A.2.107, Android 8.0). I also
 tried TBA right after full phone reset - everything the same
 - Samsung Galaxy A70 (Don't know the exact firmware build, but it's stock
 Samsung Android 9.0) - things are better, but still affected. For example,
 about:tor page shows latin characters in Courier New and some other sites
 too.

 Not affected devices and firmware that I tested:
 - Sony Xperia SP (Stock Sony Android 4.3) - not affected
 - Sony Xperia J (Stock Sony 11.2.A.0.31, Android 4.1) - not affected

 Default Firefox 67.0.2 is not affected.
 Orfox not affected.
