How to modify the font size on premise on linux

0
Hi, when I deploy my app to the servers, which are on premise linux servers using postgres, the font appears much larger than it does in my local environment. The biggest issue with this is that the column header names don't fit and become unreadable.   Does anyone why it's different and how to get the server font the same as my local?   Thank you! Tracy

The browser accessing your app might have different zoom level or font setting, check that also.as suggested above add CSS to enforce consistent font size.

Yes, the issue you're facing — font sizes appearing larger on your deployed app (on-prem Linux + Postgres) than in your local environment — is a common rendering discrepancy often caused by differences in system fonts or browser defaults on Linux servers.

  • Ensure your Mendix app has a consistent font set in your main.scss or custom styling.

  • Always define font-family and font-size explicitly in your custom SCSS theme.

  • Don't rely on system/browser defaults.

  • Use browser Dev Tools (F12) to inspect what font is actually being rendered in each environment.
