- Description : This module produces labels that are geometries. They can
- be scaled, rotated, and translated. Other geometric
- operators work as well, such as color, perspective, and
- material properties. The source for the vector
- information for the fonts is derived from the Hershey
- Fonts, stored in comp.sources.unix, volume 4, on your
- nearest archive site. The Hershey Fonts were originally
- created by Dr. A. V. Hershey while working at the U.S.
- National Bureau of Standards. The format of the font data in
- the Internet distribution was originally created by James
- Hurt at Cognition, Inc.
