Why does firefox crop the top of some font sizes?
Hi,
On certain sized fonts (and I believe the font is Verdana) the top is cropped. I've ran Firefox in safe-mode and this doesn't happen - what setting is it that causes this?

After some messing around it seems it was a custom theme causing the issue. Though this happened randomly, no updates were applied and now trying to use that theme again the pictures don't load, which is the same for any other theme too. Strange.
Contact the writer of that theme. In the mean time, disable it.
You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

You can try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.
