Hi Eric,

Someone else might be able to help you more but just to get you started.

As I see it, you move to the exact same position on the surface 
(250,120) and then you draw the text, one character at a time - this 
means that you will end up with all the characters drawn at the same 
position on top of each other.

There are text samples here: https://www.cairographics.org/samples/text/
You will see that, in general, you want to output the whole string once 
you move to the position rather than just a single character.

Hope this helps.

Best Regards,
Mohit.
