I can write anything, no bothers. And I can write my signature to ordinary
printers. When my program locked, I went through and knocked out different
bits till I found that it entered stretchBlt and never came back. So lots
of trials, lots of other use - I use Adobe 8 for all sorts of things.

I don't think that is a viable route, to be honest.

That is a good idea. I can stretchBlt to a pixmap and then blit it... yeah,
I will give it a go.
