CJK Spaces Not Working with Google Hangouts
On gmail.com in the hangouts window, Korean character rendering is often broken. Sometimes, the cursor will appear slightly above the text line. If this happens, then spaces won't won't. I can hit the space bar 20 times, but as soon as I type the next word the space disappears and the words show up as 1 giant unit.
Other times, I will need to press the space bar maybe 5 times until it enters a double space, at which point the remaining spaces will render properly. This only seems to be happening in Firefox (both nightly and stable) (Chrome doesn't have this issue). Google search seems fine as far as I can tell.
Does anyone know how I can fix this? I'm on a Mac running 10.12 using the Default text.

1.) It fails on both release and nightly. I wasn't sure whether it was considered a Firefox or a Google bug, so I asked here. I'll close this and open a bug. 2.) I'm just using the default language settings on both.

Yes, move to the Release Version 59.0.3 for things like chat. Use the Developer Edition for Developing. Since these are beta versions you should be reporting such issues. When find a bug, file a bug report. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ Bug Writing Guidelines : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/QA/Bug_writing_guidelines
Default test is what, English with Korean Language pack and dictionary ?? or are you running Korean version with English packs ?
Please provide more information please for both systems and please do not mix the info together when you describe each one. Thank you.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Options/Preferences -> General: Performance
remove checkmark: [ ] "Use recommended performance settings"
remove checkmark: [ ] "Use hardware acceleration when available" - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/performance-settings
Close and restart Firefox after modifying the setting to make the change effective.
You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.
