+## F.A.Q
+
+### How to increase quality on Windows
+
+On Windows platform, one may encounter a lower image resolution than expected. Usually, this is observed because Windows rescales every application to fit the screen.
+As found by [@arashash](https://github.com/arashash), in [#20](https://github.com/jeertmans/manim-slides/issues/20), the problem can be addressed by changing the scaling factor to 100%:
