The font rendering used an incorrect left offset

Demo fonts and theme is here: https://github.com/TakWolf/aseprite-universal-pixel-theme/releases
日本1234
In chrome:
In Aseprite:
Notice char 日 and 1, these two characters happen to have an inner padding on the left side
Aseprime lost the offset of the x-axis of the glyph bitmap.
Make the example more obvious:
I'll review this later.
@TakWolf I'm trying to take a look to this issue and see if using Skia (DirectWrite on Windows) to paint text with this font is fixed, but noticed that it make things worse (I have to investigate a little more):
🤒
Anyway I found out that with the current Aseprite implementation (v1.3.6), using Screen Scaling=100% and UI Scaling=200% things work a little better:
Anyway we'll try to find a proper solution.
It looks like the DirectWrite does't support .otf format too well, but .ttf fonts work great:
Could confirm this is an issue with DirectWrite?
Do other OTFs also have this issue?
For example:
https://unifoundry.com/unifont/index.html as 16px
https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-han-serif/releases as Vectorial
It looks like an issue with DirectWrite only (or probably some setup that is missing in the Skia side/implementation of DirectWrite, probably something to review a little later), and probably with bitmap fonts only (?).
unifont with 16px:
SourceHanSerif-Medium.otf:
(there are some issues with the required width but it's something to fix yet).
