What works
All features I can see
What does not
Running on a 288-DPI screen. Linux Xorg has a problem in which display DPI is often set incorrectly, but even if set correctly, the Vensim equation editor, icons, etc., are in about a 3-point font. Readable only with magnifying glass.
Set Xorg DPI correctly: doesn't help.
wine regedit, HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG, Software, Fonts, LogPixels: doesn't help.
winecfg, Graphics, Screen resolution: doesn't help.
Vensim offers 5 different classes of font to modify. They do not change the equation editor, but do change some other fonts.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Hard to methodically test everything when I can't read anything.

Additional Comments
Essentially unusable just because of font issue on high-res screens. As far as I can tell, everything else works.
