It would have helped in the scenario I had in my head, which is that the sizes 
are fixed per device. I thought you used one codebase for multiple devices, but 
each device had it fixed. That would allow you to pre-calculate the sizes and 
pre-render before generating the image. The output of the rasterisation would 
be PNG.
