They are using a different modern API that uses GPU vector rending for text.
Unfortunately GPU emulation is still very bad in Parallels and VMWare.
It might work better to run Citavi with Windows 7 on Parallels.

Thats not their audience and they are the master of simplicty not functionality.
(And we shouldn’t forget that Apple was never good at developing Software).
