PDF text is printing as raster

I open and print pdfs in Firefox frequently. In settings I have it set for a pdf to open in Firefox, but this past week on all pdfs the text is now rasterized when printed. If I change the setting to allow the pdf to open in Acrobat I don't have this problem, but I am printing pdfs so often that it is a nuisance to have to close another window when the pdf opens in Acrobat. I noticed that Firefox did an upgrade last week and I wonder if there is a setting anywhere that I can change so the text isn't printing rasterized? I cannot seem to find a setting anywhere. Any help is appreciated!
