            Bug ID: 143868
           Summary: Mac Fonts are too large on non-retina display - UI
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: wsanders at wsanders.net

Description:
I view my LO work on both Linux and MacOS and in Linux everything is "normal". 
When I work on my documents on an older Macbook Air with a non retina display,
fonts are generally too large again. This got fixed for a while, but seems to
have resurfaced in 7. 

Of course I can scale the view in the lower right hand size, but the scale is
saved with the document, so I have to reset it each time I switch computers. I
would like to request a fix, either of the following would be helpful:

- Do not save the scale setting in the document metadata
- Restore the scale or DPI option in the Preferences -> Libreoffice -> View
settings

Since I see a lot of work was done recently with the new HiDPI feature I have a
suspicion this is a side effect/ 

A screen shot is here, you can see that the font is rather big for 9 pt
Liberation Sans:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a spreadsheet on a Linux laptop
2. View it on a non-Retina Mac laptop
3.

Actual Results:
Fonts need to be scaled.

Expected Results:
Scaling the doc each time the doc is viewed on another display should not be
necessary,


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
Rescaling the doc each time the doc is viewed on a different computer should
not be necessary.

I have:
Macbook Air 11 inch mid 2011, macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 (last version available
for this Air)
Screen is 135 DPI (non-Retina)
Version: 7.1.4.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: a529a4fab45b75fefc5b6226684193eb000654f6
CPU threads: 4; OS: Mac OS X 10.13.6; UI render: GL; VCL: osx
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US
