it is a known issue with v11 and v12. 4D v13 fixes the problem. So you have 2 choices: 1. Upgrade to v13 or higher and it will fix the problem 2. Make changes to your forms to make the fonts bigger so they are readable on Windows 8 and Windows 10. Of course your Windows 7 users will now complain because for them the font size will be too big. I have seen a few posts where some developers worked around this by adding program code to change the font sizes of items on the form to a bigger size when running on Windows 8.
