There were a few bugs in the DirectWrite font engine that caused
transformed text to break.
First of all, alphaMapForGlyph() ignored the transform, so no gray
antialiased text would be transformed.
Second of all, the imageForGlyph() function would use the wrong
bounding box for the rasterized glyph, causing its positioning to
become a little bit off when rotating. The fix is to get the bounding
box from the system and add a margin to this instead of trying to predict
how it will appear after the vertical hinting etc. has been applied.
So that the positioning metrics are in sync with the actual metrics used
by the alphaMap* functions, we also need to implement the
alphaMapBoundingBox() function.
