JabRef 5.x requires Java 13 (It is included in the native builds)
JabRef requires Java 8
java -Dglass.gtk.uiScale=1.5 -jar <application>.jar
. If you have installed JabRef via a package manager, you probably don't have a .jar
file but a binary file. In this case, you need to find your JabRef.cfg
in your installation folder (possibly located at /opt/JabRef/lib/app/JabRef.cfg
) and add in the section [JavaOptions]
the line -Dglass.gtk.uiScale=1.5
. Then, restart JabRef. Try finding a value that is suitable for you. On high resolution displays, values around 1.5
seem to be reasonable.
