I have a really strange issue, I upgraded from vs2015 to vs2017 and a project I am working on does not render fonts correctly any more. The fonts examples work fine in debug and release mode. I cannot compile in release mode as there is an issue with the release version of the pugixml lib in vs 2017, but debug compiles and I get the following result:

I have completely rebuilt the project, cleared the obj folder, but nothing makes any difference. I am not doing anything fancy, just loading fonts:

    messageFontHuge.load("frabk.ttf", 44, true, true);
	messageFontLarge.load("frabk.ttf", 24, true, true);
	messageFontMedium.load("frabk.ttf", 16, true, true);
	messageFontSmall.load("frabk.ttf", 10, true, true);

and drawing strings

    string nextVisitor = "Ready to start a new session";
	messageFontHuge.drawString(nextVisitor, (ofGetScreenWidth() - messageFontHuge.getStringBoundingBox(nextVisitor, 0, 0).width) / 2, (ofGetScreenHeight() - messageFontHuge.getStringBoundingBox(nextVisitor, 0, 0).height) / 2);

I am deploying this project to 3 other machines that are still running vs2015 and there everything is rendered fine, and to do this I copy my source files to the remote machines and compile so the code is the same.

The machines are different but all the hardware is running up to date drivers. I also am working on a fresh install of windows.

As I said, the fonts examples display fine in all modes, so I am little confused as to how this is happening. If anyone has any insight it would be great to know.
