Graphics::Primitive::Font - Text styling

antialias_modes
       Set the antialiasing mode for this font. Possible values are default, none, gray and subpixel.

   family
       Set this font's family.

   hint_metrics
       Controls whether to hint font metrics.  Hinting means quantizing them so that they are integer values in
       device space.  This improves the consistency of letter and line spacing, however it also means that text
       will be laid out differently at different zoom factors.  May not be supported by all drivers.

   hint_style
       Set the the type of hinting to do on font outlines.  Hinting is the process of fitting outlines to the
       pixel grid in order to improve the appearance of the result. Since hinting outlines involves distorting
       them, it also reduces the faithfulness to the original outline shapes. Not all of the outline hinting
       styles are supported by all drivers.  Options are default, none, slight, medium and full.

   size
       Set/Get the size of this font.

   slant
       Set/Get the slant of this font.  Valid values are normal, italic and oblique.

   subpixel_order
       Set the order of color elements within each pixel on the display device when rendering with subpixel
       antialiasing.  Value values are default, rgb, bgr, vrgb and vbgr.

   variant
       Set/Get the variant of this font.  Valid values are normal or small-caps.

   weight
       Set/Get the weight of this font.  Value valies are normal and bold.

       Graphics::Primitive::Font represents the various options that are available when rendering text.  The
       options here may or may not have an effect on your rendering.  They represent a cross-section of the
       features provided by various drivers.  Setting them should not break anything, but may not have an effect
       if the driver doesn't understand the option.

new
       Creates a new Graphics::Primitive::Font.

   derive
       Clone this font but change one or more of it's attributes by passing in a hashref of options:

         my $new = $font->derive({ attr => $newvalue });

       The returned font will be identical to the cloned one, save the attributes specified.
