The following program demonstrates that the show
operator doesn't properly space rotated text when given a character
string with more than a single character:
/Times-Bold findfont
30 scalefont setfont
200 200 moveto
90 rotate
(Hello) show
Both the 'e' and 'o' characters overwrite the 'H'. If the show
command is given only a single character to display:
(H) show
(e) show
(l) show
(l) show
(o) show
it works fine.
