incorrect color font on windows 10 1607 LTSB

[maur0]

some pages in firefox 111 in windows 10 1607 ltsb have the letters in gray when they should be black, how to solve this?

example: page on firefox 111.0.1 on windows 10 ltsb


same page on firefox 111.0.1 on windows 10 1809 ltsc is correct

Does the same thing happen if you launch the program in Mozilla Troubleshooting mode?

Try testing with hardware acceleration disabled.

I tried both modes, none of them worked.

I managed to uncheck the last option, the font turns black

label for en-US build: "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above"

That's the browser.display.use_document_fonts preference. Defines whether the browser uses the fonts specified in the web page for display.

if I leave it checked, the fonts of some pages are in gray, which is terrible for reading, unchecking there at least everything is black as it should be and it is, but it may also not use the correct font that the page actually uses but better wrong font in black than font right in gray heheh

the strangest thing that in windows 10 1809 LTSC newer than 1607 LTSB this does not happen, the last option is marked there and the fonts are normal black, what kind of bug is this in relation to windows 1607?
maybe pass this info on to mozilla to fix this in future versions

You may want to check whether graphics card or chipset driver updates are available for your system.

The appearance of a website could adjust to match the color scheme of your operating system.

It may not be a bug, but a difference in settings between the two computers.

before messing with the photo option up there, I had tried everything in these themes without any success

I'm using the exact same gpu drivers and chipset in both versions of windows my gpu gtx 570 latest driver 392.68
Also latest chipset for my pc motherboard asus rampage 4 extreme with xeon e5-2697v2 windows has all updates installed

What font is used if you check this in the Fonts tab in the right panel in the Inspector?
https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org ... dit_fonts/

(fixed link - thanks)

I got a 404 not found error for the view_fonts link.

OK, thanks for noticing. I did recently updated some of my MDN links to firefox-source-docs links and most stay the same, but this one didn't. I had the correct edit-fonts link in one case, but missed it elsewhere where I still had view-fonts.
