So figured it out, and thought I would post this in case someone else needs
to know...
It was working, but the borders are a little weird on PDF. It seems like
the minimum y value is around 70. Any higher than that is off the page.
But the min x value is still 0. I know the given point is the bottom left
anchor of the text, but I checked the text height, and it was only 15
(measured via font metrics). Not really sure why the starting y value is so
large.
