 Strategy:

+  1. For every bubble, white-fill all its OCR quads (erases original text cleanly).
-  2. Render the translated text centered inside the bubble bounding box
+  2. Detect the original font size from the OCR bounding boxes.
-  3. Bubbles in SKIP_BUBBLE_IDS are erased but NOT re-rendered (left blank)
+  3. Dynamically wrap and scale down the translated text if it exceeds the bubble dimensions.
+  4. Render the translated text centered inside the bubble bounding box.
+  5. Uses uniform line heights to prevent accent collisions.
