    Description

      [REG 5.7->5.8][Windows]: When using Courier with a large pixel size then it will show up as 13 points regardless. This is because it is no longer scaling the font when the size requested does not exist.

      The fix done to ensure it shows the one closest to the requested size without causing a problem with it being invisible is correct for the other bitmap fonts. But it seems that Courier is special-cased on Windows as it would not have the same problems as the other bitmap fonts did.
