Notes

This exposes to the user the ability to define their own stroked fonts to be used when drawing text strings. The format allows data for an individual character glyph to be found directly by index, or (particularly for extensive font definitions) using a lookup function. lookup defines a function which will be used to draw the text string.

For further details on this specification refer to the Define_Font section of the HOOPS reference manual.
