Check labs.trolltech.com They recently (since 4.5's release) had an article about \
improving rendering on higher DPI screens. Me thinks this would give you clues.

I am not; thank you.  Now for a follow-up question: is there any way to \
programmatically discover the DPI of the screen?  QPrinter has a .resolution() which \
I'm assuming will give me the necessary DPI, but I don't know where I'd look in PyQt \
to find the screen DPI.

Once again, thanks for the answer to my question -- I hope you'll indulge another.  \
:)
