Bug Description
Ubuntu release: 20.04.1
* What is expected to happen.
All gui text elements to display complete words.
* What actually happens.
Since a recent update, gui text displays incompletely.
I'm posting this with some difficulty from the affected system, but have noted similar issues being experienced by others and I share links below:

The issues above seem to suggest the the issue may lie with the AMD graphics driver, although in my case I think I am using the 'radeon' open source driver.
The issue occurs regardless of me use the current or previous kernel version installed.
Please let me know if there is any more information that I can provide, and I will do my best to get it to you.
Many thanks,
Mark.

Thank you for your bug report. Which packages did you upgrade when the issue started? (the /var/log/dpkg.log record provides useful information there) Could you add your 'journalctl -b 0' log after getting the issue?
