Public bug reported: Binary package hint: abiword
Akin to bug #44672 in Evince, Abiword also ignores the system's and user's DPI settings (Xft.dpi and xorg.conf) for purposes of zooming. This was also discussed in bug #62347 in abiword, but was beyond the scope of that bug. It appears that Abiword uses a resolution of 72 dpi for zooming, which would make sense as 72*20=1440. This should be relatively easy to fix in the GNOME and Gtk versions - I should be able to write a patch that will scale the given zoom by screen_dpi/72 to get the zoom that Abiword should use. I will report this upstream and try to fix it later. ** Affects: abiword (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Abiword ignores DPI setting for zooming, assumes 72 dpi (1440 dpi / 20) https://launchpad.net/bugs/76396 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
