Some explanations:

The scaled font needs a font_options_t object when it is created in
FontPlatformData::FontPlatformData. The parameter in this font_options_t object
should match the settings of the destination surface, like antialiasing,
hinting and others.

For retrieving these settings, we need a surface (which can be obtained from
the cairo_t object). The trouble is that we do not have the cairo_t object
available yet when the scaled font is created. If we had it at this time, we
could build the font_options object like:

    cairo_surface_t* target = cairo_get_target(cr);
    cairo_font_options_t* options = cairo_font_options_create();
    cairo_surface_get_font_options(target, options);
...
    cairo_font_options_destroy(options);
