    Description

      Since a recent change in 4.7 branch, I get incorrect rendering for monospaced fonts that are algorithmically made bold, see attached screen shot. The displayed font is "Andale Mono", which does not come in a bold variant.

      The issue is that character sizes are enlarged by this change, even though monospaced fonts should have a "same size" guarantee.
