There are several things that can affect the look in a 2.6 application:

- small vs large fonts. Developer and user should use the same.
- font selection. Don't EVER use the default MS Sans Serif. It turns out this is the worst possible font to use. Use a true type font that ships with Windows. I use Arial
- Make sure the SCREEN font is the same on the development and user machine. Issue MODIFY WINDOW SCREEN FONT "Arial", 10 or something similar. This needs to be done before creating a screen and in the MAIN.PRG.
- Design all screens at 640x480 unless you are 100% sure all users will use a hight resolution.
