Text formatting

The text string to be drawn may contain format commands and special character names which are included inside the string, and must be bracketed by the command delimiters, < and >. The special characters include all of the Greek letters as well as some math symbols and other symbols. The names for the special characters can be seen in the figure below. When the special name is in uppercase, the uppercase version of the special character is used. If the special name is in lowercase, the lowercase version of the special character is used.

The format commands are listed below.

bolding | `<Bn>`
colour | `<Cn>`
font | `<Ffontname>`
height | `<Hnn.n>` or `<Hnn.n%>`
sub-scripts | `<_>`
super-scripts | `<^>`
italics | `<I>`
vertical space | `<Vnn.n>` or `<Vnn.n%>`
horizontal space | `<Znn.n>` or `<Znn.n%>`
