Hi Hazen:

Here is some extra relevant information I discovered this morning.

examples/python/test_superscript_subscript.py -dev qtwidget

works perfectly!  Although I don't recognize anything relevant in Alban's
patch that Andrew committed, it appears that some change he did solved all
the superscript/subscript issues that appeared before.

The same example works OK for -dev psc and -dev psttfc and works (with
regard to font size issues and vertical offsets, but not horizontal offsets
which generally have issues for this device in any case) for -dev wxwidgets
(wxGC).

Thus, the only cases I am aware of where this example doesn't have correct
font scaling or vertical offsets are pdf (font scaling) and cairo (vertical
offsets).
