At the moment, a scaled down 1px line is rounded down to 0px.

In order to fix this we would need sub-pixel rendering.

This might be reasonably straightforward on other platforms, but on RISC OS, the plotters don't anti-alias, so sub-pixel isn't really possible.

Ironic, given that the RISC OS font system was specifically designed many years ago to stop portions of letters dropping out in this fashion - but I suppose there are no 'skeletons' for ordinary straight lines!
