First, Apple's text editing program TextEdit was used to draw the text at 12 and 18 pt (72 dpi) and captured by taking a screenshot. The images were imported in Photoshop and positioned. The two images were then duplicated and scaled up with nearest-neighbour sampling, 600%. Then the following Python script was used to split the components of the source image into three vertical components:

#!/usr/bin/env python

from AppKit import *
from Foundation import *
import sys

image = NSImage.alloc().initWithContentsOfFile_(sys.argv[1])
imageRep = image.representations()[0]

bmpData = imageRep.bitmapData()

numPixels = len(bmpData) / 3

if sys.argv[2] == "1":
 for p in range(numPixels):
 (r,g,b) = bmpData[p*3:(p+1)*3]
 sys.stdout.write(3*r)
 sys.stdout.write(3*g)
 sys.stdout.write(3*b)
elif sys.argv[2] == "2":
 nul = '\0'
 for p in range(numPixels):
 (r,g,b) = bmpData[p*3:(p+1)*3]
 sys.stdout.write(r+nul+nul)
 sys.stdout.write(nul+g+nul)
 sys.stdout.write(nul+nul+b)

The above script was used twice per text image (the raw screenshot), producing four distorted image that were three times as wide as normal. They were imported into Photoshop using the RAW format import. Each of the four images was scaled like this, with nearest-neighbour sampling:

• Scale height 300%.
• Scale width and height 200%.

The resulting images had the same scale as the original text that had been enlarged 6 times. The enlarged images were cropped to an approximate square and positioned like they appear in the final image.

The Photoshop file, with intact layers, can be acquired by mailing the copyright holder. In the future, I plan to upload it to the wiki, but right now Photoshop files are unfortunately not supported by MediaWiki.
