SUMMARY

Windows 95 supports the full set of Win32 path APIs. However, only a limited set of primitives can be used to build a path. Windows 95 supports the following primitives to build paths: 
   ExtTextOut
   LineTo
   MoveToEx
   PolyBezier
   PolyBezierTo
   Polygon
   Polyline
   PolylineTo
   PolyPolygon
   PolyPolyline
   TextOut
All other Win32 primitives will be ignored if used in a path. As with other Win32 primitives in Windows 95, paths are not mapped pixel-by-pixel to Windows NT; they support only 16-bit coordinates.
