While consumers and IT professionals may find this discussion informative, the primary target for this article are developers wanting to understand how best to make legacy GDI apps look right on high DPI monitors. In this article, we will describe the challenge presented by high DPI displays, show you several ways to configure GDI Scaling, discuss how GDI Scaling works and give instructions to developers on updating their apps to run with GDI Scaling. This will give Desktop users and IT Pros a way to improve existing applications that are difficult or unpleasant to use because of blurry text and graphics. Visual elements, especially text, can appear much sharper for these applications when this feature is enabled.

#Outlook 2016 blurry text windows 10 update
Beginning with the Creators Update for Windows, we have added a new feature, called GDI Scaling, that allows GDI to natively scale visual content on behalf of DPI unaware applications. GDI is used by applications to render graphics and formatted text on displays and printers. GDI was for many years the de facto win32 2D API and is behind many of these older pre-high-DPI applications. The visual elements (e.g., text, images, icons) of these applications will appear blurry. Many applications were written without taking the DPI of displays into account and are not able to natively render their contents on High-DPI displays. Having a lot more pixels to display your application on seems like a simple recipe for crisper graphics but, counterintuitively, the opposite is often the case. In recent years, High-DPI displays have become common.
