Michael,

Thank you for taking the time to investigate and report this. Indeed
JEP-263 makes clear that there is no support for Linux on OpenJDK. The
linked bugs to that JEP also indicates that Windows is not supported
yet. Only OSX has high DPI support.

Are you able to reproduce the issue with the simple java test case
reported at https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8058742 ?


The answers to the superuser.com question indicates that tuxjdk _might_ have 
fixes for at least the font aliasing issue, but some users report that it 
didn't work for them. This will require additional tests, including tests with 
GDK_SCALE or Gnome's scaling-factor setting to simulate a high dpi display. 
Additional information will be added to this bug as the investigation proceeds.
