    \brief

        The line of the RenderedString to draw.

    \param buffer
        GeometryBuffer object that is to receive the geometry resulting from the
        draw operations.

    \param position
        Vector2 describing the position where the RenderedString is to be drawn.

        offset from the top-left corner of the entity represented by the
        GeometryBuffer.

        Pointer to a ColourRect describing colour values that are to be
        modulated with the any stored colour values to calculate the final
        colour values to be used.  This may be 0 if no modulated colours are
        required.  NB: Each specific component will decide if and how it will
        apply the modulated colours.

        Pointer to a Rect object that describes a clipping rectangle that should
        be used when drawing the RenderedString.  This may be 0 if no clipping
        is required.

        float value indicating additional padding value to be applied to space
        characters in the string.
