Reported by term...@gmail.com, Sep 1 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.89 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. No idea
2. 
3. 

What is the expected behavior?
Before the location bar font was larger (looked normal to me) and now it's tiny.

What went wrong?
Location bar no longer using OS font prefs since I updated Google Chrome from 52.0.2743.116 to 53.0.2785.89.

Did this work before? Yes 52.0.2743.116

Chrome version: 53.0.2785.89  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0

I see the issue in a clean profile as well.

Also the icons appear tinier. And when I said the font is smaller it is not bold like it was before. See the bookmark text in the screenshot, bold like that. So not bold bold but stronger. or whatever.

Actually it wasn't bold but it was bigger. I reinstalled the older chrome, here is a screenshot

Same here. The address bar text looks absolutely tiny after upgrading to Chrome 53. The text on tabs also look smaller

I'm on Windows 10.
I'm using 125% display scaling if that matters.

Thanks for posting. I'm also using 125%, so maybe that has something to do with it.

It's still tiny. I don't know see a way to reopen the issue, unless adding this comment does it.
