  1. New Aptos font looks bigger and blurry?


    The below is Calibri 12 vs Aptos 12 in Edge/Outlook Web.The new font looks a bit larger for whatever reason but also blurry; note the softer left edge on the B for the Aptos one, vs the more abrupt left edge on the second smaller Calibri B.Has anyone else noticed this? or if it's meant to be deliberately blurry?Real size:Enlarged:

    Font kind of blurry

    I just built a new gaming rig and am using an XFX 6950 and an ASUS 23.6" monitor. On some pages, I notice some fonts are a bit blurry and strain my eyes. Any idea how I can fix this? I am using windows 7, so please make the steps work for that. Thanks.

    Bigger, Darker Fonts

    BIGGER, DARKER FONTS

    Hola, hello, hi everyone... My first time here so a bit rough around the edges.

    I need bigger, darker fonts. I don't use magnifier because it is too distracting and cumbersome to use.

    I am willing to use custom scaling but the introductory paragraph on the custom scaling screen informs us it is not recommended, warning us about all sorts of (seemingly) insurmountable nightmarish problems we are likely to encounter.Right
    now have set custom scaling at 100. Barely legible. Perhaps if it were darker it would work for me.

    I have not attempted a larger custom scaling setting (e.g., 125 or 150) for fear of precipitating doomsday as I interpret the warning mentioned above.

    My specific questions/remarks are:

    • Is there a way to get bigger, darker font without altering anything else like we were able to do on Windows 8?
    • Does custom scaling alter the way things are displayed when using browsers like Google Chrome and Firefox?
    • Any ideas, comments, suggestions, alternatives, or any whatevers will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Aída

    You are way over my head. This is a brand new computer, and the fonts are blurry....they look like the letters are incomplete.
