Chrome font not rendering properly after Ubuntu update

I've been running Ubuntu 16.04 for a while now.

After a recent update, certain fonts are not displaying properly in Chrome.

See attached screenshot for reference.

Firefox has no issue displaying the same pages.

Solution 1:

Here is what I did to solve the problem:

  1. Install gnome-tweak-tool and run it
  2. Click on the Fonts menu
  3. For the "Antialiasing" option, choose Grayscale or None
  4. Restart Chrome
