I have a Winforms project that has been working just fine.
Recently, I decided to add an export to Excel spreadsheet feature. I am using the documentprocessing spreadsheet API. As soon as I perform a "new Workbook" call, my WinForms windows shrink if... and only if... I have the display font scaling set to 125% or more. It behaves fine at 100%.
Why if I instantiate a Workbook does it affect the WinForms views?

Hi Joe,
This happens when the application becomes DPI-aware at run-time.The DPI-awareness is declared on assembly level in some WPF assemblies which we depend on. When a type from such assembly is initialized the application becomes DPI-aware.
There are two solutions for this:
• Make the application DPI-aware explicitly. Detailed information is available here: DPI Support
• Explicitly make the app DPI-Unaware. This is explained in the following article (last section): HDPI Tips and Tricks
I hope this will be useful. Let me know if you have additional questions.
