      Hi,

      I am totally new about QT. I am making a report file for medical software. (design / UI)
      The problem is what size should I use for the A4 report file?
      I thought it should be 1240x1754 px (150dpi) at least for printing later. But on the monitor screen - it is quite big. So I made again to 595x842 px (72dpi). However, on a big monitor or 4K display (for the exhibition or fair) - this size is too small.

      I wonder, can I make this file as responsive? Or should I make this report file two sizes (for a computer / for a 4K display)?
      Which size and unit normally use for these report files?
      (pixel / resolution...etc)

      Thanks in advance. :)

        What do you mean by "file"? Your QWidget?
        I guess, you can scale it anyway, when you want to print something on paper.

        Qt has high DPI support and some extra settings:

        Edit:

        Is your whole "report file" an image?


        If debugging is the process of removing software bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in.

          Hi, Thanks for your reply.

          No, It is...like an HTML document?
          images and text on the file. So as a webpage it is easy to make responsible size.
          But I have no idea about QT - which size should I use. :s
          Please find the attached screenshot:
