97. That one cuts the right of the page as well, one cannot read the end of the lines and it does not scroll right

It is a question of adapting to the smaller screen, which the DU page is not doing at this time.

I am not sure what language is used for the development of DU pages, but most languages have support for smaller screens. Bootstrap, for example, allows the developer to set up the form and to adapt for different sizes, it allows support for tablets, phones etc. Bootstrap is for PHP, but as I said, most languages have that capability, if I am not mistaken it is more of a JavaScript function.
