All I can think of is line printer art instead.
[1] A Ethan Nude Calendar 2009 comes to mind ... I don't think I have seen the 'computer

if you find what you are looking for, you may have to use a real
dot matrix printer, since as far as I can tell modern printers I don't
think handle over strikes.
Postscript printers can certainly render letters on top of each other,
and it's entirely possible to do all the overstrike rendering in RAM
before emitting a JPG or a PNG that's easy to print.
It looks like Al's suggestion of aa-lib and aview will do exactly
what I'm after.
