Summary:
SYMPTOMS
When an application uses a mapping mode other than MM_TEXT and a
text alignment other than the default (TA_LEFT, TA_TOP), device
fonts and TrueType fonts may rotate in the opposite directions.
Device fonts may exhibit other unusual behaviors. When text is
rotated, the differences may show on the screen or on printout from
a printer.
RESOLUTION
To create a font that rotates based on the coordinate system in
which the font is used, the application must set the CLIP_LH_ANGLES
bit in the lfClipPrecision field of the LOGFONT data structure.
This technique is backward-compatible with Windows 3.0 because the
CLIP_LH_ANGLES bit is ignored in version 3.0.
