Default question about prime numbers and font sizes

Hi,

I'm just wondering if anyone in this group has ever come across the theory
that font sizes, which are prime numbers, such as 11 point for example,
won't display properly on a computer screen.


Never heard of it and I don't think it's true.

On the other hand, some font sizes, some types of displays and some
resolution settings simply don't go well together. For some of the
problems, and attempted solutiosn, do a web search for

Windows ClearType

or

monitor native resolution

P.S. This is not really on topic for
