After the latest update, GDI font rendering is completely broken in my system. There are graphical glitches everywhere, pages display with missing text, on many pages the text either appears or disappears depending on the zoom level. In one word, the browser is completely unusable. Everything works normally when the #disable-directwrite flag is disabled.

Please check the following examples.

DirectWrite enabled (working)

The OS is Windows 10 (1607 LTSB). I am unsure if the OS language settings make any difference here, but just in case, the display language is set to English (US) and the non-unicode language is set to Korean (Korea).

I am reverting to v3.1.5.52 for now. I would be very thankful if someone could confirm the issue (and possibly fix it).

I have directwrite disabled and these websites work fine for me ( Windows 10 x64).

Works fine

Same problem. Windows 7 x64. Aero disabled.

Confirm the problem (Win7 x32).

I'm having the same blank rendering problem. It occurs randomly. Sometimes the same pages display fine.

Windows 7 64bit.

Absolute fuck-up in this new update. Everything was working so great and now this. Please fix this because we love Cent.

Update!!

Worked fine last night....and today wrong font. I did restart the browser after updated so it's not the old version that works fine.

Now it displays the wrong font (seems like Simsun?) though my font setting is another font. Exts for changing fonts such as Stylus doesn't work, either.(Update again!! Bug appears irregularly, sometimes normal.)

But……nothing wrong such as blank text appeared.
