You can try to set the pref gfx.font_rendering.directwrite.use_gdi_table_loading to false on the about:config page, open via the location bar.

Cor-el,

If you have got the solution from my post, I would appreciate it if you refer to it every time you answer a similar question. Finding the solution myself was not easy.
