I just completed a small project of mine that works just fine on my computer. However, a few friends for some reason have large fonts turned on. As a result, my app doesn't look correct on their screens, specifically picture boxes are not sized correctly and the form as a whole appears odd. It looks just fine in small fonts regardless of resolution. I can determine if someone is using large or small fonts and change values accordingly, but what if someone is using a font size besides 96 or 120? Any ideas what I can do to have my forms look proper on computers with fonts other than small fonts besides making a form for each of the hundreds of possibilities?

On my computer, the app looks fine regardless of my screen resolution as long as I am in small fonts. Once I change the fonts to large or another font size besides small, the buttons move and the form size is incorrect. I wish it was just the resolution, but it isn't.
