Font issues with new patch

Post by Zemke »

After installing 1.01 all the fonts are too big, with bleed over. Is this normal?

It can be expected if you are using Large Fonts >96 dpi - tm.asp?m=2645378

That is just it, I have never changed "used" or did anything. It did it on it's own. Now you are saying I need to go into some file and pretty much write computer code to fix this?

You may switch to the Normal 96 dpi fonts.

I have tried to do this, but it does not fix anything. Can see no changes at all.

Can you post dxdiag and screenshot after you changed you dpi to 96? Thanks.

Don't know if this will help, but FWIW in Windows 7 you have to log off and log back on when changing from oversize back to normal Windows dpi.

I am sorry, but I don't know how to post a screen shot on here.

Here is what I have done, I went into the font file and changed the size to less, so I don't have text out of place and out of center. It changed nothing. I changed both the bottom, no change, I changed the top no change, I logged off and on, no change. I have even removed that font file hoping the program would default to it old settings, no change. Granted I like some of the larger fonts, I can not read reports a lot better, but I hate the text not lined up or over wraping over other text.
