Comment (by dfabulich):
Seems like it's not just my machine doing this.
https://www.gamedeveloper.com/design/hunting-shadows-the-making-of-
gabriel-knight https://episodiccontentmag.com/wp-
content/uploads/2015/09/gk1conversation.png This screenshot shows a large
S.
The French screenshots on https://www.scummvm.org/screenshots/sierra/gk/
show a more reasonable-sized S (but the S still looks kinda weird, IMO).
It'd be awesome if ScummVM had a feature to support high-resolution text
in Gabriel Knight. That way, instead of trying to draw a lowercase letter
S inside a 4x5 pixel grid (which simply can't be done well, as far as I
know), ScummVM could draw letters inside an 8x10 grid, which would look a
lot nicer.
