Actually I don't know how povray renders ttf fonts. However, my guess
is that it creates a kind of prism object from the text using the font.
In other words it doesn't evaluate the font for each ray, but only a
precalculated prism. (Please someone correct me if my guess is wrong.
It would be interesting to know.)
If this is so, then font rendering in povray is quite a different thing.
