I no longer have CC 2017 installed. You text is CC 2018.1 look off most likely by some sort of scaling. With your settings no scaling should be done. I have two 1920x1080 displays about the same size and resolution. I do have CS6 and CC 2014 installed these do not have Photoshop scaling feature. Here is a side by side of CC 2014 and CC 2018.1 19.1 the latest update. My setting are Windows recommended settings No scaling. I do not have any problem like yours. I agree your capture do not look sharp. View in a new tab or window zoom to full size.
I found the reason for the blurry fonts. It deponds on the windows 10 ClearType settings.
With ClearType enabled, fonts are sharp as in photoshop 2017:
I am working with no ClearType on all my machines, so I am not happy about that : )
I think with ClearType disabled, fonts should be sharp and crisp like this:
Hi Guys.
I read every question, replies and answers and I cannot see why all those question arised.
Here is an example of what the question was about.
If you look at the picture I just sent attached, on the left, writings are already dimmed compared to the right image. Offive 365 is clear and crisp on the right but really poor quality on the left and it can lead to eye fatigue if you work for a long time in an app like illustrator or photoshop.
and No JJMack, resolution is not an issue. Because I use 1 Lenovo Carbon X1 Gen7 2020 with 10 cores, with 2 DELL 24inches, side by side, all 3 displays are at a reslution of 1920x1080, which is native for the displays and the graphic card. If it would be my graphic card, it would be the same on both display.
The picture is a simple file open on the left side with Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard, which I've been using for many years and never had that problem until spring of 2019 and it was crisp and clean like the picture on the right that I opened with Microsoft Edge from Windows 10.
The only app that display uglyy jagged and blurry fonts is Adobe product and for me it changed only after I subscribed for Adobe Illustrator CC and Adobe Photoshop CC last year and then stopped.
ADOBE for any Apps, CC or not, have change something that is not good at all.
I've tried eveything you suggested and also on many other sites, inside Adobe products preferences and/or Windows 7, 10 and since last juin, when I stopped using Adobe product and reinstalled Adobe Accrobat 9.55 Standard and it never cameback to the font quality I used to have.
And when I subscribe again, all is funny, that new install doesn't do that. I paused for 1 month, paying per month and then came back to finish my work and I lost that display font quality again.
With all the time I put into this, I just let the Adobe product go and I keep only them when there is nothing else to use and I export my work to another software that respect permanent licencing. I'm sorry for those who are designers that really need Adobe to make a living because there is really no need to update after CS6 permanent licence. From all the people I know that uses Illustrator and other Adobe products, even if that problem makes it hard for your eyes (fatigue) to work on a long period of time, somebody that uses a version that change every month, at some point stop looking at all the new stuff and those who do, lose a lot of time ajusting instead of really working and produce. And all that energy that Adobe put into making the permanent licence customers hell, is far from being professional.
