The side-effect is that glyphs ‘thin out’. Mac OS X and Adobe's proprietary font rendering library implement a counter-measure: stem darkening at smaller sizes where shades of gray dominate. By emboldening a glyph slightly in relation to its pixel size, individual pixels get higher coverage of filled-in outlines and are therefore ‘blacker’. This counteracts the ‘thinning out’ of glyphs, making text remain readable at smaller sizes.

Total consistency with the CFF driver is currently not achieved because the emboldening method differs and glyphs must be scaled down on the Y-axis to keep outline points inside their precomputed blue zones.
