[comp.windows.ms] DrawText in MetaFile?

cy03+@andrew.cmu.edu (Chao-Ping Yang) (08/24/89)

I need to use DrawText in a MetaFile, but I could not get it to work, it seems
that as soon as I use my drawing routine with a MetaFile hDC, it hangs. I am
also confused by the following:

1. In Charles Petzold's boo he wrote "Some of the more complex GDI function:
    DrawText, .... " can not be used with a metafile device context.

2. In page 32 of MSW 2.0 SDK Update, DrawText is documented as one of the more
    complex GDI functions that can be used in a metafile.

Can someone be so kind as to help me out on this?
BTW, I am using Windows/286 v2.11 with SDK v2.1
