plotting text on a pixmap

[John C Atkeson <jcatkeson juno com>]

  I am writing a CAD-like application, which needs to display text
comments (sometimes angled) along with the usual line drawings.  
  
  Is there a utility in gtk to print/plot text onto a pixmap?
  
  
  (If not, I will have to 'roll my own'...  Are there docs on getting the
graphic info of system fonts?)
  
  Thanks,
  John
