Now that grids and lines and stuff render on a printout, there
just seems to be text which does not appear.

    It seems that the text is just very small on the printout. I've been
    investigating the scasling but I haven't yet figured out why it's so
    small.

    I noticed today that it works in Windows. Wierd.

    Here the text has a correct size, but only the first
    character of each text is rendered correctly.
    I cant find the rest of the text in most cases,
    in instance I see the second character rendered at
    a position that is on the same line as the first
    character, but a *large* distance to the *left*
    of the first character.
    I did print in landscape, if that matters.

    It seems like the strange rendering depends on font in
    use, I have added a project files with some examples
    that shows that monospaced fonts are broken, while
    others are not.
    The test file is in CVS:
    src/net/sourceforge/circuitsmith/test files/text-test.cp
    Printing ok: bitstream vera sans, lucida sans, bitstream
    charter, lucida bright.
    Printing wrong: courier, dialog.

    I wonder if this has something to do with the graphics
    context having fractional metrics set to false. I'll maybe
    make it print to the console if it ever encounters one like
    this.
