As far as i am aware, the gtk_paint_ functions will just use pango-cairo
code internally to render the text anyway; doing it yourself is simply more
direct API-wise but that's it.

As for how to obtain that information from Pango (TT font or not), maybe
someone else can answer it, i don't know the insides that much.
