Great, thanks!  I had to add the fontbox jar to get around an error, and
now I have made a printout. 

Problem: instead of letters, I only see little blocks!  I would guess
there's an encoding of some sort needed.

I've attached a PDF copy of the printout. 

Is there a guide for me to refer to?  The documentation seems sparse - I
am basically reading source + comments for help at the moment.

Thanks for the help.
