eframe shrinks the start size to the monitor's, but not by the frame, the title bar or the taskbar, and Windows places a new window away from the screen's corner. On a laptop screen the first window's bottom, with the end of the scroll bar, sat under the taskbar or past the screen's edge, so a drag of the scroll bar stopped where the pointer met the edge. The window was saved that size and opened so again on every launch. On the frame that first knows the monitor, a window that doesn't fit with 48 pt to spare on each side (WindowGeometry::fit_on_monitor) gets a smaller size, never below the minimum, and is centred. A window the system placed counts its position too; a restored one, maybe on another monitor, only its size. Maximized, full-screen and minimized windows are left alone. Checked on Windows with no saved settings: the window now opens wholly on screen.

Hardware parity with Microsoft Word
Last reviewed: 2026-10-12 · Last updated: 2026-10-14 · Change: trivial (Pen / stylus row: ink, eraser and Ink to Shape incl. arrows landed; previously trivial: a window too big for its screen shrinks to fit when it opens, #1215; previously trivial: 32-bit Windows starts on OpenGL; previously major: first version) · Target: Microsoft Word (Microsoft 365) for Mac 16.113.4 and Word for Windows
Printing update: 2026-10-12 · direct desktop printing through craft-print; details below.
Word is not a hardware-heavy app, but a few devices matter to its users: printers above all, then pens, microphones (Dictate) and speakers (Read Aloud), and displays.
Dimension: ~40% (estimated), 20–40 h to full (pen/ink hours are counted with the Draw tab in
target-app-parity.md).
| Hardware | Word | WordCraft macOS | Windows | Linux / BSD | Web | Parity | Hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printers: native print dialog, printer choice, copies, duplex, page ranges, tray, scaling | ✅ (WordPDE.plugin print-dialog extension on Mac) |
🟡 Direct CUPS printing; printer, copies, collation, duplex, ranges and grayscale | 🟡 Direct spooler printing; printer, copies, collation, duplex, ranges and grayscale | 🟡 Direct spooler printing; printer, copies, collation, duplex, ranges and grayscale | ✅ browser print dialog (#209) | 35% | 5–8 |
| GPU rendering, HiDPI/Retina, pixel-aligned text | ✅ | ✅ wgpu + vello_cpu rasteriser, whole-pixel text (#110, #165) | ✅ DirectX 12 default (#50), OpenGL when DirectX 12 has no GPU driver (#316) or on 32-bit; startup crash on Intel UHD (#170) | ✅ (soft text on KDE at some zooms, #140) | ✅ | 80% | 3–5 (bugs) |
| Pen / stylus: ink, pressure, eraser, ink to shape/math | ✅ (Draw tab, InkRender.bundle) |
🟡 ink, stroke eraser, Ink to Shape incl. arrows (#307, #395); pressure and Ink to Math missing | 🟡 same | 🟡 same | 🟡 same | 50% | (Draw tab, 15–25) |
| Multiple monitors, per-monitor DPI, remembered window position, a window that fits its screen | ✅ | ✅ (#38, #76, #1215) | ✅ (winit DPI fix pending, #155) | ✅ | — | 85% | 1 |
| Microphone: Dictate | ✅ (cloud speech service) | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | 0% | 8–15 + owner (speech model choice) |
| Speakers: Read Aloud | ✅ | ✅ system speech, speed, sentence skip (#190) | ✅ | 🟡 | 🟡 | 75% | 1–2 |

Revision history
| Date | Change | Summary |
|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-14 | trivial | Pen / stylus row corrected: ink, eraser and Ink to Shape (with arrows) work; pressure and Ink to Math missing |
| 2026-10-13 | trivial | A window too big for its screen shrinks to fit when it opens (#1215): eframe sized the first window to the whole monitor, frame and taskbar not counted, so on a laptop screen its bottom, with the end of the scroll bar, was past the screen edge. A window saved that size is fitted on its next launch too |
| 2026-10-12 | trivial | 32-bit Windows starts on OpenGL: DirectX 12 graphics pipeline creation returns "The parameter is incorrect" and the app exited before the window appeared |
| 2026-10-12 | minor | Desktop File > Print now discovers printers and submits PDF jobs through pinned craft-print with printer choice, copies, duplex and grayscale; browser printing and PDF export remain available. The upstream preview, page ranges, parity and Print Markup remain available. Remaining print parity includes driver-specific tray/options and pages-per-sheet UI; physical printer fidelity needs hardware validation. |
| 2026-10-10 | trivial | Windows falls back to OpenGL when DirectX 12 offers only the software adapter (#316) |
| 2026-10-10 | trivial | Desktop File › Print opens the PDF in the system viewer (#286) |
| 2026-10-10 | trivial | Inertial touchpad scrolling landed (#252) |
| 2026-10-10 | major | First version |
