Actually I am loading normal arial.ttf and want to render bold characters algorithmetically. My doubt is whether AttrList synthesizes bold or help fontconfig to load bold font file itself. I want to know the api in lines to FT_Bitmap_Embolden in FreeType. Do I need to change FT2 backend a little to achieve this?
