    Description

      When the pixel size of a font is higher than 64 pixels, Qt will fall back to rasterizing the outlines as QPainterPaths. The synthetic emboldening in e.g. FreeType is not implemented for this fall back, so an artificially emboldened font will suddenly revert to its original weight when the pixel size increases beyond this threshold.
