How do you know that blurring one character produces the same effect as blurring two characters close together?

You don't need to know this. You make an image of the text for every combination possible, apply the blur algorithm, and see which one is a pixel-perfect match for to the image on the web site.

Or rather, you don't do this, you write a program to do it :)

But you'll have to go through 64 ^ (64 x 9), combinations which will take years which was what I said in the first post.
