Description:
Similar to Bug 123305 (https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123305), Fonts on HDPI displays are blurred

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Installed 7.1.2 fresh
2.Opened LibreOffice -> Writer
3.Wrote text in Writer

Actual Results:
The interface, icons, dialogs and content windows display blurred (unfocused) text.

This was reported in 6.1.4 and prevailed until 7.1.1.2 where it was partially fixed. Now the issue is back as usual.

Expected Results:
in 7.1.1.2 text was sharp and crisp. interface elements were not.
Expected: Text and interface being sharp and crisp (icons, dialogs, text)


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
Environment:

MacOS 11.2.3
XCode 12.4

Interestingly in the Preferences section Online Update, under User Agent -> Send OS version ...
when checked, the OS is incorrectly recognised as 10.16 instead of 11.2.3.
This seems hard coded.

For About dialog macOS verioning see https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140913

For font blurryness can you attach screenshots. That should have persisted in 7.1.1 and be fixed in 7.1.2.

Your report describes the opposite situation "fixed in 7.1.1 and broken in 7.1.2" which is highly surprising. Please open your about dialog and and create some situations with blurry fonts and add a screenshot of that to this bug, thanks.
