Does the Help file look okay on 4K screens?

Thanks. The browser does it right. Is this is a general CHM shortcoming, or did my CHM generator (Help & Manual 5) do a bad job?

This is not a general CHM shortcoming
In Help & Manual must be such options.
Es is table width not in pixels, but in "pt" or other unit.

I do not know how to do this in Help & Manual 5, but you just need to do what I did for the Russian file.
replace <td width="142"> on <td style="width:108pt">
View this file as example

you have in all chm-files 3200 entries of <td width="xx">
td width="13"
td width="19"
td width="26"
td width="34"
td width="38"
td width="46"
td width="58"
td width="94"
td width="142"
td width="154"
td width="201"
td width="250"

Thanks! But:

1) It's not only the table cell widths. Also the row heights look better in the browser IMO.

2) I have no inclination to patch the CHM file in my free time.

No desire on your part - no problem on my part
