All text files are blurred/fuzzy in 6.3.0.4. 


Actual Results:
Blurred text

Clear text

User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
Maybe it has to do with the MacBook's Retina Display.
Enable/disable OpenGL has no effect. 
Part of UI (not only in Writer) is also blurred (all the fields in general settings (for example, symbol styles)) .

I would like to confirm the fuzzy text.  It is in all Libreoffice applications.

Earlier today I was running 6.2.5 and had no problems with the text in documents.

I got the email about 6.3 release and upgraded.

Now all documents have fuzzy text.

Version: 6.3.0.4
Build ID: 057fc023c990d676a43019934386b85b21a9ee99
CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 10.14.6; UI render: default; VCL: osx; 
Locale: en-CA (en_CA.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

Not sure what changed but the document display is now quite terrible.  Documents look bad with the fuzzy text.

Exporting the documents to PDF produces excellent output.  So this is a display issue not font.

I can also confirm this bug. The fonts in the drop-downs are extremely blurry, as are the document fonts. As of now, the software is difficult to use for any length of time, and I shall have to revert to a 6.2 build. Please do prioritize a fix.

Really? That bug concerns 6.1.4
Is the related code still the same?
;JOOP!

@Joop Lanting I agree - I struggle to see how this is the same bug, unless there has been a regression.
