HiDPI, Windows 10
Pd version 0.51.4
Pd has a problem, showing tiny fonts, on Windows 10 with HiDPI screens.
There are recommendations in forums to change DPI settings for the pd.exe executable, but this will not work.
Check the Desktop shortcut for Pd:
Properties -> Target
It is probably set to:
"C:\Program Files\Pd\bin\wish86.exe" "C:\Program Files\Pd\tcl\pd-gui.tcl"
The solution is to change DPI settings for wish86.exe:
Properties -> Compatibility -> Change hi DPI settings -> Override high DPI scaling behavior -> System (Enhanced)
Start from command-line
/c/Program\ Files/Pd/bin/pd.exe
Command-line options and scripting:

"Hello, World!" with Pure Data
Either as text...
#N canvas 646 147 450 300 36;
#X obj 233 130 print;
#X msg 87 46 Hello\\\, World!;
#X connect 1 0 0 0;
... or, more common, using the GUI:
- Put a Message object and a Print object on the screen.
- Click on the Message object to see the message in the log window.
(Note that the comma sign (,) is escaped to not be interpreted as a line separator in the Log window.)
