You probably want to use something like Pango for this, or Freetype of course.

Even if you change a value in FC_SPACING property, that won't change
the feel of "Width of each character is different" because that is the
reason why it was PROPORTIONAL. that is just a cache from a font to
query a best font against a request. that won't affect the rendering
directly.
