Same issue here on multiple dell latitudes E6540 laptops in company
(using Ubuntu 14.04.5). And it does happen after resuming from a
suspend. Almost every open application is affected with
distorted/missing letters. Looks like
http://askubuntu.com/questions/584922/how-do-i-fix-fonts-not-rendering-
and-missing-letters (intel driver issue?). Only restarting lightdm (or
logging out and in again), fixed the situation.

Title:
On-screen text disappears after suspend
Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
After resuming from a suspend, almost all text on screen is not
visible. This includes menu items, text in all three boxes (list of
folders, list of e-mails, e-mail body) in Thunderbird (with the
curious exception of "ffl" in the File menu), top menu in Chromium
(but not the menu obtained by pressing the hamburger button), and the
menus produced by clicking items in the system tray. Also, the apport
dialog had no text except for a few capital letters.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
* initctl restart unity-panel-service restarts the panel, but the text is
still missing
* suspend and resume does not fix the issue
* Logging out fixes the issue
* Other affected applications:
** Chromium file select dialog
** Terminal (entire window)
** ttys 1-6 (Ctrl+Alt+F1, etc.)
** Document viewer (menus)
** Software Updater
** Rhythmbox
** The dialog that appears when you take a screenshot with Ctrl+Alt+PrtSc
** ubuntu-bug
** Nautilus
** LibreOffice Calc (spreadsheet text contents)
** Firefox
* Unity dash is not affected.
* Skype is not affected.
* Mousing over a button in a dialog correctly shows the text.
