<p style="margin-top: 1em"><font color="#000000">This is a
text object which is constructed by using <i>text</i> as a
format string for sprintf with an argument of <i>expr</i>.
If <i>text</i> is omitted a format string of
<b>"%g"</b> is used. Attributes can be specified
in the same way as for a normal text object. Be very careful
that you specify an appropriate format string; <b>pic</b>
does only very limited checking of the string. This is
deprecated in favour of <b>sprintf</b>.</font></p>
