Here is sample code to use these patches:
<font face="Times-Roman" h="20">
<row>
<textbox w="100%" underline="1">This is underlined</textbox>
</row>
<row>
<textbox w="100%" overline="1">This is overline</textbox>
</row>
<row>
<textbox w="100%" strikeout="1">This is strikeout</textbox>
</row>
<row>
<textbox w="100%" underline="1"
overline="1" strikeout="1">This is all three</textbox>
</row>
<row>
<textbox w="100%">This is none</textbox>
</row>
<row>
<textbox border="1" x="0i" w="50%">This is normal textrise</textbox>
<textbox border="1" x="2.8i" w="50%"
textrise="10">This is textrise=10</textbox>
</row>
<row border="0" w="25%">
<textbox x="0.0i" textrise="00">L</textbox>
<font h="16">
<textbox x="0.05i" textrise="3">A</textbox>
</font>
<textbox x="0.15i" textrise="00">T</textbox>
<textbox x="0.28i" textrise="-4">E</textbox>
