How do I detect if the user's font (DPI) is set to small, large, or something else?

Question

I need to find out if the user\'s screen is set to normal 96 dpi (small size), large 120 dpi fonts, or something else. How do I do that in VB.NET (preferred) or C#?

Have a look at the DpiX and DpiY properties. For example:

using (Graphics gfx = form.CreateGraphics())
{
    userDPI = (int)gfx.DpiX;
}

In VB:

Using gfx As Graphics = form.CreateGraphics()
    userDPI = CInt(gfx.DpiX)
End Using
