You could try using the FreeType stroker, which is capable of modifying
the vectors to create outlines and borders.
See FT_STROKER_H, i.e. <freetype/ftstroke.h> for the API.
Thanks for the heads-up, I've now started using this myself and
the results are nice -- it's convenient to be able to have
these fairly arbitrary (even sub-pixel) thicknesses, for
creating these readability-outlines and for fake-bolded versions
of faces.
Thanks,
