Drawing resized font to fit cell width

Character width to be displayed, such as "©"(U+00A9), can be either 1 or 2cell, and depending on the font design (font file), the font width can also be either 1 or 2cell.
Depending on the language and font, font width may not match width to display.
When the text is drawn to fit the cell width, looks natural, but drawing may be slower and the font design may differ from the font developer's intent.
And refer to Ambiguous Characters width, East_Asian_Width and width (cells) for character width assumed by Tera Term connecting destination.

ON

When the width to be displayed and the width of the font to be drawn are different, text is drawn with resizing font to the cell width.

• When Tera Term displays as 2Cell and the font design is 1Cell, 1Cell character and 1Cell space are drawn.
