I tried using NSExpansionAttributeName when sending a NSAttributedString to CoreText, but it didn’t work. Docs say it should be a NSNumber of the log of the expansion factor. This is confusing because log normally means base 10, except that in C it is actually ln() (Naperian). Either way, it had no affect on the text size rendered by my CoreText engine. (Back to scaling my font, I guess.)
