  13. I thought I was finally getting comfortabe with Renderman, until
  14. I decided to display some text.    Just how does one get Renderman
  15. to produce a letter.   The HARD way?   Gosh, I hope that I don't have
  16. to model every letter...  In the book "Renderman Companion" the author 
  17. really blows buy how text "texture maps" are created.   Kinda like the
  18. old Math professor's  "assuming" that a text map exists, such that....
