Hello I use ZoomText 10 from Ai Squared, and keep getting the message that I need to disable the hardwertacceleration in Thunderbird to work the xfont well. I did this already in Firefox 31. I can disable this nowhere in thunderbird 31. What should I do to make it work well in Version 31 ? Thanks in advance and excuses for mine poor language. M. van Schaik Netherlands
