[PD] showing text or number in gem

[cyrille henry]

hello,

when i have to draw lot's of text, i usually generate letters as texture.
using pix_multitexture you can render text the way you want.
the drawback is that you have to generate the texture (imagemagick is good for this),
Also, images quality is not as good if you change the size of the text.
