Using LG L204 screens with native resolution of 1680x1050 relative ratio of 1.6 driven by (NVIDIA GEFORCE 7300) ... it has always been my understanding that if you needed to run anything outside native resolution on an LCD that one should choose a screen resolution that has the same relative ratio H / V. as the native resolution ... So I created a custom resultion of 1440x900 which is also 1.6 and set screen to this resolution ... the result was not very good.
Is there a general rule of thumb that one can use for changing the resolution or is this just trial and error?
We want to use 120dpi in native resolution which works great for most apps but our accounting software provider doesn't work in 120dpi and is unwilling to modify their software to work in that mode. They recommended we switch to 1440x900 but we are finding this extremely difficult for reading anything due to the inconsistancy of the font character thicknesses and blurred/fuzzy pictures.
