Yes, but the basic principle still holds. You are converting from
points to pixels, and want integral pixels. Therefore, you need to
find the values in "points" that represent integer pixel-indices.

As outlined on the linked page:
1) Scale the rect by your scaling factor (moving you from
"point"-space to "pixel"-space)
2) Round the rect to integers, using NSIntegralRect. (still in "pixel" space)
3) Offset the rect's origin by (0.5,0.5).
4) Scale the rect by the inverse of your scaling factor (giving you
the "points" that represent integral pixel indices)

The key is *when* you do each of these things. If you use
NSIntegralRect on values that are still in "point" space, then you
will get integer points, not integer pixel indices; if, on the other
hand, you use NSIntegralRect on values in pixel-space, you will get
integer pixel indices.
