| 1) Checking out how TheFont scales I found that 'K' doesn't get painted
| correctly either in the X or in the SunView version. Try:
This resulted from an obscure algorithmic bug in the general path
filling algorithm. Fixed in release 1.3.
| 2) As I was trying out this K-problem in various rotations I found that
| the graphics state isn't reset at showpage/copypage/erasepage.
| I expected that an 'initgraphics' should take place, but apparently not.
I followed the PostScript convention, which is that showpage does an
erasepage and initgraphics, but copypage and erasepage don't.
