is there a reason you can't change the font size to 14? unfortunately the tools I use dont let me set the font size, it gets automatically adjusted to the tallest letters
Actually yes. When I render at 8px or 16px it’s 2/3rds or 4/3rds of the original size. I have my canvas and resolution set to be 3 screen pixels per 1 font pixel, so that makes rendering the font at 8 and 16 possible and perfectly crisp.
