x,y. the "Position" argument is a two charactor string, indicating
where in relation to the coordinates the string should be oriented.

The first letter is: t, c, or b, for top, center and bottom The
second letter is: l, c, or r, for left, center and right The
position refers to the position relative to the text itself. It
defaults to "tl" (top left).

Size is the size of the font in pixels, or in points for printing
(if it ever gets implimented). Those will be the same, If you assume
72 PPI.
