But why would you do this when you could just change the format of your graphic to tiff and replace the white background with transparency? This is relatively simple to do with Photoshop or Gimp, etc. With Cocoa it's just one line to composite the section of the image containing your character, retaining the transparency. If your view is filled with a green background and you composite (NSCompositeSourceOver) the character image over top this background, only the text part will show up with the green background showing through.

Since the system I'm emulating only supported 16 colors, I could just expand
my 128x128 source image to be 2048x2048 and thereby include every possible
color combination for every character.
