Yup, this is what Word 2000 uses to get the 'Outline' effect you can
select in Format->Font.  Wine doesn't implement it yet hence the
FIXME.  It would essentially mean writing another ExtTextOut clone
that gets the outlines of the glyphs and adds them to the path, as
well as doing all the other stuff that ExtTextOut does.

Huw.
