Remarks

After drawing of each character in the string represented by the text parameter this method looks up a width in a collection represented by the charWidths parameter and applies extra displacement if needed.

Text gets rotated in counter-clockwise direction.
The string represented by the text parameter always spans only one line. Please use DrawText() if you want to draw more than one line of text.
