What are you using? |

| The size of the RDC (Remote Desktop Connect) display is not inherently related to the physical size of any monitor attached to either the connected-to or remote machine. It is, instead, a virtual display that has no equivalent in material space. So the size is controlled by how it is created at connection time. I imagine, to be "helpful" the default resolution will be the lesser of the source and destination displays, or some "safe" value. There will be a configuration item that allows you to set the size of the virtual display (probably, but not necessarily. on the connected-to system). I don't know how to do this on MS Windows, but it shouldn't be too difficult to find out, a web search for "RDC set display size" would probably turn up something relevant.
Dual monitors in both locations only adds to th complexity, it could be that MS Windows is trying to "fit" dual displays into a single monitor window at the destination. I have seen this with RDC on Macs. The 125% blow-up mentioned in the OP probably isn't helping either as this gives less space into which to fit the default remote display space (27" is less than 1.25 * 23"). |
