Out of curiosity, what operating system are we talking about here? Linux or Windows or Other?  (And for the record, what software (programs/apps) are we talking about that exhibit the behavior?

I don't have a UHD monitor myself so there's no way for me test how pervasive such behavior is on Windows.  I guess I'm just *hoping* it's not very common.  I mean, as I wrote, *technically* a screen's resolution should *not* matter one iota one way or the other as far as the size that fonts are drawn!

I sure wish I could verify the truthfulness/accuracy of that though.  But without a UHD to test with there's no way for me to know.  :(
