User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Win64; x64; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0 Build ID: 20180310025718 Steps to reproduce: I updated to version 59.0 from version 58.02 and the letters are not seen until I select it with the mouse. If I select another tab and go back to the one that was disappearing again, I have to select them so that they appear. Sometimes they disappear if the page is long and I move at the end, at the beginning everything is hidden. This does not happen on all the pages. Disabling hardware acceleration solves the problem. But it is a problem introduced in version 59. Until version 58.02 worked correctly.

hi, thanks for reporting this. we are currently looking into this issue in bug 1435472 so far it appears to be an issue that only affects users who have turned off cleartype font rendering within their windows settings. so a workaround for the moment would either be to turn cleartype back on or disabling hardware acceleration in firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/performance-settings
