SYMPTOMS

Vector fonts do not rotate properly with a text alignment set to other than the top left.

To reproduce this problem, create a logical font for the Script vector font. Call SetTextAlign() to set the text alignment to TA_BASELINE and TA_CENTER. Rotate the font, perhaps in a whirl pattern as the FONTEST sample does. Note that the rotation axis is skewed in the northwest- southeast direction. This problem occurs in all mapping modes.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in Windows versions 3.0 and 3.1.
