I mean that, if you are computing the coverage for each pixel, you
have to go through each pixel, then look at the neighboring pixels
to see their color/transparency, then do a computation based on
that (a mean, or something similar). Thus, if you would want to
scale that font by X, you look at the pixels not at (-1,0), (-1,-1),
etc, but at (-X,0), etc. But, thinking again, you'd have to check
more pixels anyway, so it wouldn't be much faster.
Basically, I was imagining something more that what you actually
intended your lib to do.
