Bug Description

The rendering of Chinese characters in pcbnew is upside down as shown in the attached screenshot.

Also, the size of the characters is significantly smaller than "normal" characters. This makes it impractical to have mixed languages in a single text element.

By the way, Japanese characters like こんにちは do not render at all.
