Hi Jacob,

Super high resolution displays are becoming more common on Windows laptops, but 
densely packing pixels into a small screen comes with some trade-offs. If you 
experience this problem when run the IDV in Window, right click the IDV icon to 
go to the install location, and find the jre/bin/java.exe, right click the 
java.exe to open the property window and select the compatibility tab, check 
the "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings". After this change, the IDV 
font and display should be normal.
