Hi Everyone

(Maybe since a recent Firefox update...)

I have noticed some fonts (googlefonts) on some webpages are displaying badly. This is only in firefox, they look fine in other browsers (chrome etc) It's like the anti-alias isnt working, they are blocky and lumpy. see attached screenshot on next post.

I have tried all the obvious.. HWA is enabled in Firefox, ClearType is enabled in windows. None of the fixes I found online worked for me.

The troubleshooting info on graphics seems to show some dubious information... see attached screenshot on next post.

D3D9_COMPOSITING disabled by default: Disabled by default DIRECT2D unavailable by runtime: Failed to acquire a Direct2D 1.1 factory

Does it look ok? Has an update broken something?


Thanks for taking an interest! Markio
