Feel free to ask me any questions. I put enough documentation in here to make this an easy to copy with your own hardware.

I sunk a lot of time trying to get perfect 1-bit font rendering running under Docker (Debian Linux), but could not get it match the precision of the Mac default Arial font rendering.
I have a side-by-side rasterized image showing the difference here:

Linux insists on doing some freetype font thickening, giving the output a random thick-line look. If anyone knows more tricks to disable this or influence the anti-alias font rendering behavior, let me know!
