Huh. So if you do 

   $tb1->text('blah <b>blah</b> blah');

It seems to work, but with really long examples that end up on multiple lines it sometimes doesn't work?

Can you send me a real example and the .pdf that is generated so I can look at both?

I don't use Windows, but if I can reproduce it on Linux or OSX then I could see how I might fix it.

Umm... Every <b> needs a </b> to have any chance of working as I originally expected. I have no idea what <b> <b> <b> does.  :)

Thanks,
