72pix fonts are same height as 48pix or 54pix fonts about lcd-image-converter

[i-g-g-y]

Forgot to mention, this was observed when using MS Sans Serif

Sorry, I can't fix it.
Fonts like

• Courier
• MS Sans Serif
• MS Serif

are bitmap fonts. They can't be scaled to any size. Only fixed list of values are available.
I can only add note for such fonts and update list of sizes.

For example, Arial is a scalable font:

#include "mainwindow.h"
#include <QFontDatabase>
#include <QDebug>
#include <QFontMetrics>
#include <QApplication>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);

    QFontDatabase fonts;
    QString family =
            //"MS Sans Serif";
            //"Arial";
            "Courier";

    QString style = "Normal";

    QList<int> sizes = fonts.smoothSizes(family, style);
    qDebug() << "Sizes for " << family << " " << style;

    for (int i = 0; i < sizes.count(); i++)
    {
        qDebug() << sizes.at(i);
    }

    bool isScalable = fonts.isScalable(family, style);
    bool isSmoothlyScalable = fonts.isSmoothlyScalable(family, style);
    qDebug() << "isScalable: " << (isScalable ? "true" : "false");
    qDebug() << "isSmoothlyScalable: " << (isSmoothlyScalable ? "true" : "false");

    for (int i = 16; i <= 72; i++)
    {
        QFont font = fonts.font(family, style, i);
        QFontMetrics metrics(font);
        qDebug() << "i = " << i << ", h = " << metrics.height();
    }

    MainWindow w;
    w.show();
    return a.exec();
}

OK, thanks for info, I will use a scalable font then.
