VisText objects automatically know how to print themselves when sent the proper messages. In nearly all cases where printing text is essential, a VisText will be included in a visual object tree. Then, when printing occurs, the topmost object in the tree (most likely a VisContent) will receive the print message; this message will be passed down the tree until all the visual objects (including any VisTexts) have printed themselves.
