I understand this problem better now.

If a document is zoomed inside of Apache OpenOffice, there is no problem.

If the Windows 10 GUI Display Settings are changed to present text features of
apps at a scale other than 100%, the problem of blurry font rendering is
visible.

This is essentially a Windows 10 behavior.  It applies to other applications
that I run under those conditions.

I also confirmed that LibreOffice 5.0 x64 on Windows 10 does not show the
problem.

WORKAROUND #1

 If it is more important to have OpenOffice documents viewed in larger size for
clairty, I recommend using the Zoom setting within OpenOffice rather than using
the Windows 10 display setting.  It may also be useful to go through the
Cleartype settings to ensure that you are getting the best display rendering. 

WORKAROUND #2

 If enlarging material outside of the OpenOffice text-editing window is
important for vision-related reasons, it appears that LibreOffice may provide
immediate relief and that should be used.  It is safe to install LO
side-by-side with AOO so that you can compare and decide whether the
display-wide text scaling is what is critical for you.

REMEDY

Technically, this is a breaking change introduced in Windows 10.  There is
demonstrated to be an accommodation to it, since not all applications are
affected negatively.  What it will take to make the necessary adjustments in
OpenOffice is not known at this time.
