      Horizontal text alignment can be achieved by supplying the
      <code>:align</code> option to the text methods. Available options are
      <code>:left</code> (default), <code>:right</code>, <code>:center</code>,
      and <code>:justify</code>.

      Vertical text alignment can be achieved using the <code>:valign</code>
      option with the text methods. Available options are <code>:top</code>
      (default), <code>:center</code>, and <code>:bottom</code>.

      Both forms of alignment will be evaluated in the context of the current
      bounding_box.
