Laptops
Laptops running 11 and 13-inch screens will still run Infusion but it will be small to read. You must leave the Font Size as Normal
Note: If you adjust the font size under Windows, reports and layouts will print with the right hand margin missing.
See Reports not Displaying Correctly to solve this
Netbooks
Netbooks have proven difficult to use with Infusion as the combination of screen size, resolution and font size cause issues
Tablets
Tablets may need an RDP connection to run. This will require the appropriate installation of the RDP App for the device.
