Description: Compared to other applications, LibreOffice renders fonts too big. This has been a problem for a long time. I've seen some other threads about it but they always end with someone denying that this is a problem. Still, check this screenshot https://imgur.com/a/OCSwl I have not changed any scaling in Preferences and it's a fresh install of the latest LibreOffice. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just open LibreOffice on MacOSX. I'm using Macbook Air on OSX 10.12.6 2. 3. Actual Results: The fonts render too large / the spreadsheet is too large. Makes documents created in Excel look weird. Expected Results: That the font size is the same as in other applications. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Completely new intall. LibreOffice has not been installed before. Additional Info: I have tried this on multiple Macs with the same result. The Windows and Linux versions are fine, it's just in MacOSX.

@Jeremy : please give detailed instructions on how to reproduce what you are experiencing, as currently I can't reproduce the behaviour you describe.
Sorry, don't know how to reproduce. I just started LibreOffice, and then it was like that. The problem is not entirely the same now though, but it still exists. There a smaller difference in size now, to the better, but still quite different. I removed my user profile just to be sure, and the took this screen shot.
