I see that the Font_Descriptor function can do this job probably. Now I want
to know which fonts I can specify in this function? Do I need to specify the
same font name that you see when you drop down the font list in Microsoft
Word, for example? How do I specify the font name under Linux
(Fedora/Ubuntu)? I don't understand the angle parameter. Thanks in advance
for the help.
