+This extension renders a line of text using
+"Hershey" fonts for plotters, derived from 
+NBS SP-424 1976-04, "A contribution to 
+computer typesetting techniques: Tables of
+Coordinates for Hershey's Repertory of
+Occidental Type Fonts and Graphic Symbols."
+
+These are not traditional "outline" fonts, 
+but are instead "single-stroke" fonts, or
+"engraving" fonts where the character is
+formed by the stroke (and not the fill).
