RDP from laptop with higher resolution cause Outlook fonts to be too small on remote device (desktop)
Strange the fonts only change in Outlook on the remote device. Fine when I'm working remote however when I get into the office it's hard to work in Outlook on my desktop.
To clarify only Outlook fonts are smaller everything else has not changed.
