| 1) Checking out how TheFont scales I found that 'K' doesn't get painted
|    correctly either in the X or in the SunView version.  Try:

This resulted from an obscure algorithmic bug in the general path
filling algorithm.  Fixed in release 1.3.

| 2) As I was trying out this K-problem in various rotations I found that
|    the graphics state isn't reset at showpage/copypage/erasepage.
|    I expected that an 'initgraphics' should take place, but apparently not.

I followed the PostScript convention, which is that showpage does an
erasepage and initgraphics, but copypage and erasepage don't.
