What do you want to control? QML text elements use a distance field glyph cache out of the box (unless you force it to native rendering). I think the vertical size of this is hard wired for now. In theory it could be exposed. Afaik Image elements don't use a distance field at all, so you would need to write a custom QQuickItem plus material to make use of distance fields here. > Texture atlas can also a good thing to improve performances, but with new > API that are coming like vulkan the interest will decrease, so this feature > will be interesting only for few years. That assumes a backend to Qt Quick that uses something which supports bindless textures.
