We are making a x-y plot widget for Motif.
In that widget, we need to scale and rotate a 
set of fonts. We would like to use the Adobe fonts
that most users have. However, the bitmapped fonts
of X won't scale and rotate easily. Does anyone have an example
code of how to read and display scaled rotated pixmaps
of (true) Adobe fonts? 
(It doesn't have to be X or MOTIF code.)

Thanks, Bill Kamp
