ProcessBook symbols, this symbol is not sized by dragging an area on the
display. Instead, the symbol is sized to accommodate the text within. When
text is added, the symbol grows in size and when text is removed the
symbol size shrinks. The size of the font used also affects the size of the
symbol.
You can format the text symbol for font and color. Text symbols have all
the functionality of other static symbols except rotating and flipping.
