This creates a text engraved into a plane. (Please note that a plane is
a solid object.) "Signet Roundhand" is a handwriting-like font, so the
letters are big and overlap each other.
But the left part of the letter "P" is cut of. It seems to be a
bounding problem. And where the letters overlap, there are many "noisy
pixels". They were not patterned when I used the perspective camera
instead of the orthographic one.
It occures with the VC++ compile, too.
