This is a common problem with Qt5 based apps on Windows. Having multiple screens and scaling factors makes the problem even worse. This problem is fixed with Qt6, which will/should be used by the next release of okular on Windows. I can't find the relevant bug reports right now, but this known by the Qt devs, which kept the current behavior in Qt5, so it doesn't break existing apps, but this scaling problem is gone with Qt6.

Okular nightly built on windows with Qt6
Installing the current nightly for windows, compiled with Qt6 indeed fixes the bug. All interface elements and fonts are correctly scaled. On the left: 125%, in the middle: 175%, right: 100%
