Blurred text on Retina screen - note blur is 64 (2^6) pixels wide

1.  Please update the System Requirements to state the maximum screen
resolution supported.

The System Requirements web page at
https://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/source/sys_reqs_aoo41.html states "1024 x
768 pixel or higher resolution with at least 256 colors (16.7 million colors
recommended)"  There is no maximum given.

See [Solved] Blurry Text Documents at
https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=92135 where an Apple
MacBook Retina with a screen resolution of 2560 x 1600 or 2880 x 1800 produced
blurred text.  The blurred text was fixed by operating the MacBook at a reduced
screen resolution.

Retina screens are now available with resolutions up to 5120 x 2880.  See Using
a Retina Display at  https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT202471.  

Higher screen resolutions will inevitably follow, and also be available to
Windows users, which is likely to increase the number of instances of the
"fault" being reported to the forum.

2.  It would be an advantage if, during the installation, the user was told the
maximum screen resolution supported and/or an error message was given if the
screen exceeded the maximum resolution supported.

[My screen is 1920 x 1280 and has no problems]
