I am placing a simple text in my scene using the sample from the help like
this.

  text {
    ttf "timrom.ttf" "TEST TEXT" 1, 0
    rotate x*90 scale 5
    translate <-13, 0.5, 0>
    pigment { Black }
  }

My problem is that my reference is the lower left corner which makes it very
difficult to accurately position the text within the scene. I have a fair
bit of it to place :) Is there a way to get the centre or length and height
of the rendered string so as to calculate the centrepoint?

Thanks
